Fruity Vanilla

I had ice cream the other day … yup

Blue bell brand

Vanilla

Cold

Small size

I put some fresh blue berries in it

And some raspberries

I sprinkled micro cut chia seeds

I got a very small spoon

I put on music

And I ate it

I let my tastebuds enjoy each flavor

I even shared with my boo(sometimes I don’t)

Actually I gave him his own individual cup

I still think that’s sharing

Why am I sharing this?

Because there are ways to enjoy the not so healthy by combining it with the healthy

Like white rice with steamed (Not buttered) veggies

Like seasoned grilled sweet potatoes with fish (yup grilled NOT in butter)

Like…

Like…

Like brown rice with stir fried veggies (too much of a stretch??)

You get my point though right ?

Healthy-ier is good!

After all the goal is to be better versions of who we were yesterday with each passing day!

This is a please… eat healthier most.

Whatever that may mean to you…

Be encouraged to do it!


Hugs,
Dr. Olabintan
