Healthy Eating

I know several of my family and friends have mentioned starting a healthy eating program at the New Year.
How is it still going. We are about two weeks in, I do feel most didn't start until the 4th though.

Well do you fall into the "diet trap". Do you beleive all the hype about the healthy foods, and the 100 calorie snacks?

First why do we have to snack all day long?

Second what kind of nutrition is in the food we put in our bodies?
Most of the 100 calorie snacks have no nutional value.

Here are a few 100 calorie snacks that are good for you:

1. Half an apple with 2 teaspoons of peanut butter
2. An orange and a few dry-roasted nuts
3. 10 cashew nuts
4. 10 almonds
5. 2 ounces of lean roast beef
6. Half a small avocado
7. 3 ounces cooked whole-grain noodles with 1 fresh tomato and 1/2 ounce hard cheese
8. 1 seven-grain Belgian waffle
9. 4 mini rice cakes with 2 tablespoons low-fat cottage cheese
10. 3 ounces low-fat cottage cheese and 3 whole-wheat crackers
11. 1/4 cup fat-free ranch dressing with mixed raw veggies
12. 6 Wheat Thins crackers with two teaspoons of peanut butter (or any nut butter)13. 1 small baked potato with 1/2 cup salsa and 2 tablespoons of fat-free sour cream
14. 1/3 cup of unsweetened applesauce with 1 slice of whole-wheat toast, cut into 4 strips for dunking
