Healthy Kitchen: a solution that will benefit both you and your family

Create a Healthy Kitchen for the Whole Family

From Sonoma Diet
Sticking to a diet can be tough, especially if your family insists on keeping non- food in the kitchen. There is, however, a solution that will benefit both you and your family.

Processed baked goods, cookies, crackers, chips, and sugar-filled cereal don't do anyone any good, diet or no diet. Lay down the law and banish these things from the house. If it's not there, you can't eat it - and once you explain your reasoning to your family, they will understand and support you.

Help them along. With the harmful food gone, put out fresh fruit in the kitchen. Have whole wheat bread and peanut butter available. Stock up on vegetables and have some cut and ready for them to snack on. Let them see that a healthy kitchen doesn't have to mean deprivation.
