Today’s mid morning snack is happening in my Lifecycle Nutrition class during a very exciting lecture on adult obesity. I’m ecstatic to report I am no longer obese, and just overweight on that lovely BMI scale! I’m coming for you “normal”, watch out! According to the CDC website, for my height, a normal weight range would be from 122 to 164 pounds.

I’m happily enjoying Watermelon, Pumpkin Seeds & a tall glass of Water, a healthy snack full of fiber, good fat, protein, hydration and yumminess!
I love fresh watermelon in the summer time here in Florida. I bought this beautiful seedless at a local stand produce stand for just $2. I’m learning to love pumpkin seeds. I bought these at whole foods on a whim. They are raw and unsalted, so maybe a little boring, but they pair nicely with fruit for a crunchy healthy snack!
Healthy snacks keep me full throughout the day so that I am never tempted to over eat at meal time and blow my weight loss plan. I have about 8 more pounds to lose to make that “normal” weight on the BMI scale.
Do you snack throughout the day?
Love the idea and will have to try it. Thanks
Sounds like an excellent combo – and congrats!
It is so encouraging to see your posts! You have given me motivation that I can do this! Sorry if I stalk you page too much lol!!
Aww thanks! Of course you can do this! Just remember, my success has been a long and steady process of small changes over 3+ years, but so worth it! Thanks for your support & for reading the blog! Means a lot!
