Change Can Be Good

At my new doctor's appointment a week ago, I decided to change the way I eat which means I need to learn how to eat and cook differently and enjoy it.  I had never met this doctor and was a little apprehensive to change after years with the same doctor's office, but my insurance forced this change.  Sometimes...change is good. 

My new doctor told me to "eat more vegetables" plain and simple.  I am sure I have heard those same words before but the way he said vegetables made me chuckle to myself and I listened to what he had to say.  "If you eat more vegetables then you can't eat so much other stuff."  He wasn't telling me to go on a diet, just to eat more vegetables.  What he said just seemed to click and my journey began.

The next day my husband saw this new doctor who told him the same thing.  "Eat more vegetables and you can't eat so much other stuff" and the way he said vegetables made my husband chuckle to himself.  But it clicked for whatever reason.  And now he is eating more vegetables...
