Food Journaling....

Food Journaling……

First off this is a month long effort by the UBBT 8 students of Silent River Kung Fu of which I am one of.

I just had to write about this as this is something I have never done before and I am not sure if I am looking forward to it…  What concerns me the most is putting myself (and what I eat) out there for everyone to look at.  I don’t have anything to hide and for the most part I think I eat fairly healthy.  I love to cook for my family and because I am a baker by trade I obviously bake many sweet treats (homemade devils food cupcakes with a Swiss style choc butter cream on top) for my family.  I am strong believer in eating a balanced meal at often as possible in the hectic society that we live in today.  I don’t think you need to really cut out anything (DON’T TAKE MY BACON!!) you just have to eat everything in moderation is our family’s motto.

The other thing about this challenge is that I think you are very mindful as a result.  Once you start writing things down you start to realize exactly what you have eaten or perhaps what you haven’t eaten which could almost be worse…  I am going to embrace this challenge and put myself and what I eat out there for everyone to read!

P.s We are going to try and make this a family effort and have everyone do some food journaling for the month of March.
