Healthy Eating Plan

Having a healthy eating plan is something that I have really needed to get and focus hard on.   This assignment will help me out, because I recently found out that I could have pre-diabetes so I have to get tests done every six months and I am suppose to start working on eating healthier, because that could help me not develop diabetes.   I usually get my mind set on exercising and eating right, then I have trouble not eating my favorite unhealthy foods.   Once I started this class and got on to the My Pyramid Plan I realized that it was to me out a lot by showing me what I am not getting enough of on a daily basis and just help me out with it all.   From what I have seen of my eating habits so far my eating habits obviously need some improving.   I am going to talk about my eating habits, my nutritional recommendations, and how I intend to implement my healthy eating plan to my daily life.
