Remember the backpack of calories you are carrying in every pound of fat. Your fat is screaming “use me!” A light lunch is the way to go. Eating must be fun. Eat the right amount of food and chew it well. You do not have to eat till you feel stuffed. Do not let your belly control you. A small lunch munch sends a message to your body to start the clean up process. A light lunch will give you more energy for the afternoon. Your mind will be clearer and you will get more work done. Is this not the way you want to live each day?If you give your cells what they need, they will give you want you need – energy.

Here are some suggestions of a healthy lunch munch. Have fun!

Super Salad

A small serving of salad made of fruits or vegetables will meet all your body’s needs. Carrots, yams, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, lettuce, pineapples, apples – the choices are endless. The key is to cut them into bite size pieces. The dressing must not be the store bought stuff which is deadly. It is filled with transformed fatty acids that have been known to be the cause of all sorts of diseases. The stuff is heated to 2000F°. It has as much nutrition as motor oil. Avocados make a great salad dressing. Natural fats and oils are good for you. They digest easily and supply natural fats and oils. Blend an avocado in a food processor or blender. Add cider vinegar, lemon juice, sea salt, a garlic clove, a slice of ginger, a teaspoon of honey and a small tomato. Experiment and you will come up with your own favorites. No junk on this salad,just good nutrition for your cells. When you eat, you can almost hear cells say “thank you.”

Cantaloupe Surprise

Dice one cantaloupe and chill in the freezer for ten minutes. That is one entire meal. Cantaloupe has the most nutrition per calorie of any food. It may take a little adjusting to think of a fruit as an entire meal, but try it and you will like it. You can give it a dash of sweetener by adding a teaspoon of honey over top. If you want to lose weight, you need to cut calories while maintaining good nutrition; cantaloupes fit the need perfectly. Chew it well, and enjoy the flavor.

Cantaloupe Juice

The juice of a cantaloupe and 2 oranges fresh out of the juicer is a healthy choice. A tropical milk shake is invigorating and will surely give you an energy blast! The nutrition enters your blood in seconds. Carry a thermos to work if you cannot make it fresh. Drinking cantaloupe juice for lunch is a mini juice fast. It is filling and satisfying. Do not be in a hurry to finish it, instead, let it combine with your saliva. Enjoy the subtle changes of flavor as thedigestive enzymes start their work in the mouth.

There is a wide variety of foods that make up a healthy lunch munch. Be adventurous and experiment. The goal is to avoid a high calorie intake. Think healthy at all times.
