Day 2

I made it! 

That is through my first day of no sugar and no processed foods and it felt so good...

I noticed as I cleaned my pantry and fridge I needed snacks. I am a huge snacker!

As I shopped which took me a couple hours reading labels. I kept thinking what can I eat?  I was so conditioned on processed foods such as crackers, bread, snack packs and chips just a few  of my favorite things.  I was on a mission to not feel deprived but to feel satisfied so I traded in my oily processed chips for a different kind of chip.

I found this awesome snack which tastes so good and gave me the crunch of a chip.
I found my bag of Barefruit Apple Chips at Costco, I had never heard or seen this brand and yet they are so crunchy and tasty.  The best part of these apple chips, the main ingredient is apples and that is it!  Nothing processed and nothing fried. Seriously the best chip ever and so healthy.

Other healthy snacks I have been snacking on:
carrots,cucumbers and celery with hummus
nuts- raw almonds and walnuts
fresh fruits such as: 
bananas                                                         
apples with all natural nut butters
pears with goat cheese
grapes
oranges
all natural pepper jack cheese stick
                                                      Turkish apricots (no added sugar)
                                                      hard boiled eggs

I have been able to snack away and feel totally satisfied, Of course I have had sugar and chocolate cravings. It is only day 2!  But I have been able to swap my favorite treats for some of nature's finest foods.
