100 and holding……….

Ha!  Kidding……Let’s see an unfat tip for today……..I ate……what did I eat???…..did I eat?  Hmmmmm that is a good unfat tip….kidding….but seriously I don’t know what I ate today….oh yea, yea it’s comming to me …..slowly…..ever get so tired you don’t know if yer comming or going?  Sit at the computer so long for days you feel like your eyes are hanging down to your knees and you can’t see straight anymore???….you turn yer head but ya still can’t see cuz you left yer eyes round the corner somewhere?…..And your butt hurts from sitting so much??  That ‘s what I’m feeling right now – need a pillow or a cloud….yea a cloud would be better……ahhhh the thought of a cloud to sit on…anyhoo I ate …not good today…..nova salmon but it was too oily and too salty….yak I’m getting an urky feeling thinking about it.  Nova Salmon with crackers….oh bad…very bad… too much salt….and crackers always have dehydrogenated oils……..oooh I was such a bad girl!  Not to say salmon is not good for me.  It is and it is one of my favorite meals – I just got an oily batch this time.  I like it raw best – sushi style but too expensive right now soooo had to settle.  Salmon is good for the heart, bones, brain and has the right fats my body needs.  Oh and I like it ….a lot.  Look here for some good info on salmon.  http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=104  Ate some M&Ms too and a few Brazil nuts which happens to be one of the best nuts you can eat….I already new that from years past research but have looked it up for you here – http://www.nutrition-and-you.com/brazil-nuts.html Good for the heart, lowers cholesterol, has high levels of selenium, B complex and many more benefits.  The little stinkers are hard to crack though.  I usually squash them and have to knaw them out much like a beaver knaws a log…….but worth every knaw and tasty too.

For dessert I had an apple…………….all better now……………

Brain Eats – Simple Quick Snack

     One of my favorite quick healthy nutritious snacks is an avacado.  I just cut it in half, put a spoon of hot sauce inside and eat the avacado and sauce with a spoon right out of the shell.  Don’t even dirty a dish.  I eat it plain if I don’t have sauce.  Sometimes I cut up a tomato and avacado and eat it.  I like the taste of the avacado and the tomatoe.  No need for salt.  Avacado is a little high in fat but just don’t eat it too often, or cut out something else.  It’s too good for the body to not eat.  It’s rich in vitamins and minerals, has no cholesterol http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts/fruits-and-fruit-juices/1843/2 has Omega 3 fatty acids and is rich in Omega 6 fatty acids essential for brain function which the body does not produce so you have to get it from food sources.  The omega 6 found in avacados also preserves  skin, hair and bone health.  http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/omega-6-000317.htm

Avacado’s are a must in your diet.  One or two a week is enough to produce many bendfits for your body and brain.
