It seems like everywhere I’ve looked lately – magazines, blogs, television – I’ve been hearing about the importance of snacking.
I even blogged about it this week too. Being at the mid-point of my Weight Loss Journey, with 10 pounds to go, I sometimes want to shun away from food. Obviously over-eating {and not exercising} is what contributed to my weight gain. Oh, and a couple of cute girls too!
So often, though, I want to completely avoid eating to help speed up the weight loss. BUT – it’s really one of the worst things you can do when you’re on a lifestyle diet change. Your body is already reacting to the lessening of portion sizes, extra exercise, and lack of yucky foods full of sugar – so depriving of nutrients altogether will only hurt in the long and short run of things.
Having all these “healthy snacks” articles coming to me at the same time has been a great reminder that it really is important. And Earth’s Best reminded me that healthy snacking is not just good for me, but for our girls too. This month’s Earth’s Best products are all about Toddler Snacking…
This month we’re trying out the *new* Greek Yogurt Smoothies, Sunny Days Snack Bars, and Organic Kidz AppleSauce! Watch our for our reviews of all three of these yummy snacks coming up in the next couple of weeks AND for your chance to win some for yourself {and your kiddo’s, of course}!
