What does a healthy day mean to you??
Weighing in?
Eating oats?
Low carbs?
Going for a run?
Drinking only water?
No fruit?
Juice?
Blogging?
Twitter??
This is how my day looked.
Waking up after at least 7 hours sleep.
After waking up I make a bee line towards my Keurig and pick out what kind of coffee I'm going to have.
While that's brewing I fill up my water bottle with 3 cups of water. I make a deal with myself I can have my coffee once I've drank my 3 cups of water :) This way the water goes down pretty quick!
Making a healthy breakfast whether it be eggs/oats or pancakes :) Today it's brownie batter pancakes with banana and sugar free syrup!
Catching up online with my fellow bloggers. Checking out my peeps on Twitter. 20 squats!!
Today I'm volunteering at a games afternoon for people with mental health issues. Lots of fun. Hubs came along as well.
I took some veggies, clementines, a protein drink and 3 of my home made molasses balls. I also drank lots of water there as well. If I hadn't done that I would've eaten some of this:
Got off of the bus home early so I could get some extra exercise in. 45 minutes
When I got home I started dinner. Drank more water while cooking low fat sausage with brussels sprouts in a butter sauce plus a few oven baked fries. I wanted something sweet after dinner so I grabbed a couple of clementines :)
Now I'm having a cup of green tea and chillaxing with the hubs :)I will go to sleep tonight knowing I did the best I could. Am I perfect? By no means but I do try to have more on plan/healthy days so that on days when my planning flies out the window they do not de-rail me.
What do you consider a healthy day?
What kind of day are you having??

A healthy day for me means staying within my limits and getting in my water and exercise. It should also include supplements and I'm going to pick up what I need on Thursday.
Sounds like a great day! Im taking your water before coffee idea - thanks. Sometimes its noon before I get to the water because Im enjoying my third cup of coffee :) Today I ate pretty clean, nothing processed and stayed well within my points for the day. I made it to the gym and sweat like crazy through a spin class and then acted like a giant kid in the pool with my son.
Probably exercise, no pop, lots of water, fruits, veggies, grains, and balanced desserts
Bravo to you for volunteering!
What a wonderful and healthy day :) I Think having water before your coffee is a fabulous idea! I also like the whole what do you consider a healthy day question as many people have different ideas. I would love to blog about this idea and possible link to your page. Please let me know if that is alright.
Thanks

Hi Suzy. LOVE the whiteboard drawing and yay you for volunteering!!! My healthy day would include lots of water, lots of healthy food, and lots of laughter!!!
for me it 100% means taking care of myself in the fashion that I have all the energy to do what I need to do...and more :)
I think the water before coffee is a grand idea. At our office we have a beeline for the Keurig at 8 on the dot :)
Your day sounds very very healthy to me.
For me a healthy day is reading all these beautiful blogs, spending time in the kitchen, a walk or jog, and moderated drinking.
