Eating Right *Decisions & Tips

Everyone has problems, I'm struggling here - when I get hungry I think it would be easier just to eat a fast yet un-healthy snack or meal. But if I take a second and really think about a good solution for my hunger... I do! Choosing it is the part that is hard at times.... I wish I could just wipe out all the bad foods!
Instead I resist temptation... when I eat healthy and I go run an errand I treat myself to a mint patty and $20 or $40 with out a mint patty.

I divided them below from my real life examples:
Breakfast
1st thought - Un-healthy choice:
Over Processed and sugar filled cereal - the list of these cereals are endless but in this last case today it was horrid 'Marshmallow mateys'

Healthy choice:
(4 cups) Filtered Water (not all at once) + Apple slices + Oatmeal = ingredients I choose to make Oatmeal scrumptious today were: (~1/2 cup) Whole Oats, (1 teaspoon)honey, (1/4 teaspoon) cinnamon, (1/4 teaspoon) vanilla, (1/4 cup) raisins, (teaspoon) peanut butter and (~1/2 cup) whole milk

Lunch - Snacks
1st thought - Un-healthy choice:
Dehydrating Pop with Chips, Pizza & Noodles
Healthy choice:
(6 cups) Filtered Water (not all at once) + (13) carrots + (cut off 1/3 cup slices) cheese + (3 leafs) lettuce + (5) ham slices



Dinner
1st thought - Un-healthy choice:
Pancakes with strawberry syrup and sugary ice-cream and plopped whip cream
Healthy choice:
(3 cups) Filtered Water (not all at once) + Apple slices + Eggs + Rice with Honey and Whole Milk


Also I am trying not to eating or *drinking after 9pm *only drinking Filtered water
