Regarding holidays, feelings and food, it is useful to plan ahead and have a successful strategy in mind. Know how you’re going to play the game. For example, I recommend avoiding springing new ideas about “avoiding meat” just as people are sitting down in front of a large ham, turkey or salmon dinner. I have found it helpful to plan a response before going to an event where there will be people and food.

Most people have many things going on in their lives. Making a commitment to a healthier diet  may sound complicated. It’s easier to become committed to healthier living using some of my “health is wealth” favorites from, “Malibu Lifestyle Cookbook”, They say knowledge is power, and time is money. These healthy living choices in food and lifestyle have saved me thousands of dollars and thousands of hours. 

I can’t always control what, when or if I get to eat a decent meal each day. That’s why I’ve taken that extra step of having a multivitamin, a meal shake, a protein shake or drinking a yogurt smoothie. It’s a comfort to know I’ll have energy from some source no matter what unexpected changes are in my day. I’m going to list easy steps I have used that might make you feel better and be happier. When you want to make a commitment to something like a healthier diet, it sounds complicated, it seems difficult. I think anything valuable requires a commitment and it’s never been easier to make healthy eating a way of  life.
