Healthier Eating

Well, our kitchen cabinets are close to being empty so that means it is time to hit the grocery store.

Since we are only going to be in this apartment for 16 more days, I will not be stocking our shelves like I normally would. But I am also on a mission to bring healthier food choices into our home. And instead of waiting to do that after we move, I want to slowly begin implementing them now.

It goes hand in hand with Josh and I wanting to get healthy, and since our workouts are now routine, the next step is to work on our eating habits.

I have frequented Aldi since we got married but I have not been taking full advantage of their healthy options. So I am excited to go and see what they have to offer.

Eating healthy has been something Josh and I talked about for a long time and has always been a goal of ours. But we never took action and made changes. I think it had to do with being overwhelmed by what we would have to “give up.” I mean, pasta and bread is delicious, who is ready to part with that?

But I have been giving it some thought and realized that we don’t have to make Earth shattering changes. We can begin by simply choosing the healthier options of foods we like. For example, since we love pasta, I can pick up whole wheat instead of regular. It’s a simple fix but one that won’t leave us hung up on giving something up.

I wish I would have considered this sooner, but it’s better late than never. I am excited to see what kind of physical changes Josh and I notice after we begin our healthier eating. Plus, there are so many great recipes out there, I will definitely be trying those and sharing the ones we like!
