The hardest thing about a health kick is how to keep it kicking on. For me health kicks are all about longevity and lifestyle.
A maybe not so wise friend said in order to choose a diet you need to read all the diets there are and weigh up all the facts and then choose one that makes the most sense. A very logical approach, but who has time to do that? I’m just going with any facts that come across my sphere due to conversations with friends and family. After listening to all that nutritional small talk, I have decided to give up ‘white stuff’.
Its not about replacing white stuff with fake white stuff. I’m pretending that cereal, bread, rice and pasta never existed. I’ve replaced them all with vegetables.
This can make eating out a bit of a challenge and my work requires me to eat out quite a bit. Its a tough gig my job!
The word coleslaw makes me shudder, but Three Bean Espresso’s Wonderslaw gives this raw vegetable classic a whole new meaning. A serving of Life Changing Bread, may not be a magic pill to quit smoking or help with anger management, but is just the type of replacement white stuff I’m talking about and with some house made beetroot hommus and live feta, its a perfect fit.
Thankfully, I’m not on a “diet” so I can be a bit flexible with my white stuff allowance, but it’s nice to know there is somewhere I can go without compromising my loyalties.
