Good eating
I would like a bit of help with choosing healthy snacks. Actually, I need a whole lot more than a bit of help with that. I don't know which school of thought works best, there's the no snacking in between meals, stick to 3 meals a day, the 6 mini meals a day and the 3 small meals and 3 snacks a day streams. I 'm not sure which works best or which is most effective for keeping the metabolism firing all day. So in fact, I need help with deciphering this code because I'm so confused. Also with portion sizes, how much is too much. All these questions about food, it's just fuel for the brain and muscle components of us!
I really do need the help with this though, snack ideas would be good. I usually do the yogurt and fruit thing, but that's getting a bit boring, anything that's nutritious and yummy would do the trick.
Otherwise, not much to report. I had a great work out the other day. I usually get bored really quick so I try to change my workout routine a fair bit. I can't afford a personal trainer as yet, so I get my workout ideas from fitness magazines, such as Shape and Fitness which you can by the way read on the internet. So anyway, this workout was a treadmill based one, the usual interval training bandwagon every trainer seems to be on at the moment but it was hard...really hard, and I finished it. However, today I looked at what they had planned for me (40 min of run-walk at high intensity) and chickened out, so didn't go to the gym today...for which I paid by stubbing my little toe on the corner of a tome B for boy had lying around and splitting the poor bugger open, I took that as a sign from the powers that be, had I gone to the gym, I wouldn't have been at home to hurt myself thusly. Anyhoo, raring to go tomorrow running or no running, I missed my work out today.
So enough of the ramblings, I'm off to visit some of you guys now, looking forward to hearing lots of yummy snack ideas from some of you more seasoned good eaters.

Hmm snack ideas... well they say the small 6 meals is supposed to be the best... but I find that hard to stick too and still stay within in points. I usually end up doing 4 meals...
Snacks for me lately have been Cadbury thins, Babybel Lite cheeses, Laughing cow cheese, rice and those flavored tunas, handful of edamame...
