Just a quick thought to share with you today!
Are you like me and think about something totally different than what you are doing?
I think I was washing dishes when the thought "Calories are similar to money" bounced in my head.
What I mean...if you are trying to control your weight and be healthy, you have a limited number of calories you can consume in a day's time. Consume more than your body needs and you won't like the outcome.
Therefore, you need to plan the calories you consume...don't waste the calories on food that is not nutritious for your body. Feed your body calories throughout the day to keep your metabolism working efficiently. This means eating on purpose and not on a whim..
When you go shopping you have X amount of dollars you are willing to spend on that shopping trip. If you spend more...you overextend your budget. So you think about your purchases, buying items you need the most and looking for good deals. This means shopping on purpose and not on a whim.
What do you think?
To Your Excellent Health!

About Me
- Willene
- I have a passion for health and the prevention of disease.Even though my profession was in the health care field as a RN, my awareness of the role we can play in our own health began over 30 years ago when my husband became chronically ill. I started by checking out the foods we were eating. I learned that many foods contained unhealthy preservatives. Much to my kids objection, I limited the amount of sugar in the foods I bought. Over the years, my food purchases changed as more options were offered. Today we can actually purchase healthy foods that also taste good. About 9 years ago I became aware of the harmful and caustic chemicals in the personal care and home care products I was using. I thought the products on the grocery store shelves were safe to use. I learn how untrue that is and found an online wellness store to shop at. I now have peace of mind knowing that my personal care and household products are not putting me at risk for disease.
