I Just Have To!

My sister’s wedding is coming up here in a few short months and there is one major thing that I have been putting off, but I can’t put it off anymore. I need to slim down a little bit so I will look fantastic with the Salt Lake wedding photography company my sister hired.  So because of that, I’ve been doing a little research online on great ways to slim down and feel a whole lot better. I just came across a MSN article about ways to cut down on calories each day just by substituting what you would normally eat.

Here are some of the tips that I thought were fantastic:

  • Instead of eating some banana bread, mash a banana with peanut butter and put it on your whole wheat toast. This can save you about 260 calories in one sitting. Now, that is a great!
  • Replacing with a one-inch square of dark chocolate instead of eating that chocolate chip cookie, you can save yourself about 180 calories.
  • Rather than a blueberry muffin for breakfast, try a whole wheat English muffin with a blueberry fruit spread to knock off 270 calories.

I am going to try some of these out because not only do they sound amazing, it will help me reach my goal.
