• ready-to-eat cereal topped with sliced banana and yogurt
• quick hot cereals
• bran muffins served with fresh fruit
• peanut butter on toast with milk
• dinner leftovers wrapped in a tortilla

Exercise

Surround yourself with supportive people.  Decide what kind of support you need.  Do you want them to remind you to exercise or just ask about your progress?  Do you want them to participate with you regularly or occasionally or just allow you time to exercise by yourself?  Its best to share your activity time with others by making a date with a family member, friend or co-worker.  This will also make you an active role model for your children.

Recipe

You can prepare any the ingredients either by hand or using a food processor, depending on what texture you like your salsa. I like to chop my scallions very thin by hand. I seed and chop half of my tomatoes by hand; the other half I puree (seeds and all) in my food processor. I also use my food processor to mince the peppers, yellow onion, garlic, and cilantro. Mix everything in a medium bowl. Add lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir it up and serve!
