Fun and Wise Health Challenge – Dress Up Your Food and Add Color

I know sometimes we women tend to want to dress in a neutral color. But when it comes to our food, we need to add some Zing and POW to our ‘food wardrobe’. Did you know that beige foods tend to be high in carbohydrates and lower in nutrition? Breads, rice and pasta may taste yummy on the lips, but they can add more to calories. One cup of refried beans can be 500 calories. You could eat almost 10 servings of fruits and vegies and still not meet that 500 calories! So – avoid beige and add some color to your plate and you will lose weight!
