A new perspective

So today I realised that if the Daniel Plan is going to last it has to be a life change not just a fad diet or anything else. For it to be a lasting change I'll definitely need to work on my thoughts and attitudes that keep me from being my best self. Dr. Aymen calls them ANTS- which essentially are self defeating thoughts that sabotage your best intentions. One of my ants is the notion that healthy food is bland, bad tasting and gross. This thought gives me permission to eat all the unhealthy food in the name of taste. Buy you and both know this thought is false- there are PLENTY of good tasting, good for you foods and I vow to give myself the freedom to explore them and find new favorites. Today, in the name of eating more veggies, I am going to make a portabello mushroom burger- which usually means a huge meat patty with a few mushroom slices on top. lol Not today. Not anymore. Today I am making a substitute that uses avocado, mushroom and whole wheat buns.... and Im excited! I found the recipe here. Bon Appetite!
