Countdown to Summer with National Nutrition Month

Hello again cyber friends! It has been quite a while since I have posted, but now that spring break is over it is time to get back into the swing of things! If you are like me, then you spent your spring break doing nothing but relaxing and enjoying yourself, and for me- that meant eating some not-so-healthy foods. WELL. ... since summer will quickly be upon us I have decided to kick it into gear to get as fit as can be before those unbearable Texas summer days (there is no possibility of getting away with NOT wearing shorts). Since March is ALSO National Nutrition Month, I came up with an idea to help jump start my motivation. I am giving up JUNK FOOD for 21 days (they say it takes 21 days to create a habit so it is worth a shot!) I think that to be nutritious, the types of foods on this list should never be included. Since there is no value in eating junk-I will simply just not do it! (maybe if I make myself believe it, I will actually stick to it) It may be fun to tie nutrition into your classroom somehow just to get students more aware of what they are eating. I guarantee most of their days consist of one of everything on this list! Yikes!
