Before and After (part 1)

Occasionally, I get to eat breakfast on the plane...and when I do, I like to keep the same "health-habits" going so I can feel great about the trip, stay on track with my goals, and maintain my physiological balance.

So, here's a picture of what was included in the breakfast. You've read my notes before on portion sizes, nutrition and healthy habits...so, it won't be a surprise that I didn't eat the entire breakfast.

I'll be honest and say this is one of the most difficult habits I've ever created...

I grew up with a family that believed in "cleaning our plates." Now-a-days, I realize that if I continued to "clean my plate" at every meal I'd probably gain back all 40 pounds I lost over the past 7 years. And, if anyone ever goes out to a restaurant, or does eat breakfast (or lunch, or dinner) on a plane...remember, the "cook" probably won't see that you didn't eat it all. And, you'll be doing yourself a great big favor by not stuffing yourself full!
