FOODS FOR THOUGHT~
Hey Everyone...Just want to share some foods to "Think" on if your not already including them in your eating plan!
@PoliteOcean
lemon taste good and is very beneficial
@PoliteOcean Love this stuff!
@PoliteOcean
this stuff is good but it should be made sure that you purchase organic apple cider vinegar with the ingrediant "mother" , to get maximum benefits
@InnocentSoul123
yes Soul, it says that on the label of the bottle if you look closely toward the bottom...... Braggs is a very good brand that is sold in Whole Food stores. I personally have only used it once along time ago before I actually knew all the benefits of it.
@PoliteOcean
How about I eat some chocolate covered nuts?? 
hehehehe
Actually, this is really good information. Sometimes I crave sweets, but usually it's things like chips, salsa, and cheese. Oh, and french fries. So this gives me a good idea of some things that may help curb those cravings that are healthier. Thanks for the
Hahahaha! I had the arrow hovering over the Add Post button.That last sentence should read:
Thanks for the information.
@BridgetAileen
Sounds like the "cravings" you mentioned both would fall into the "carb and salty" category!.. Hope that helps and works for you!... ( I know those cravings can be so tempting)! Good luck! 
@PoliteOcean, thanks. It must be partly emotional, too, because it absolutely must crunch. *crunch, crunch, crunch* LOL
@PoliteOcean
so I have a pasta craving?!?! What if it's whole grain wheat? :)
man, all this food talk is making me hungry, but I may not be eating as healthy :X
@PandaK
Hey Panda! Wheat is "still" a carb ;) And yeah, its surely a challenge to talk about food and not get tempted with cravings!! lol
@PoliteOcean
i had recently found a replacement for pasta noodles: spaghetti zucchini or squash! Requires a tool but real easy to bulk up on & freeze down to boil later on. Yummy :)
@PandaK, OK, now I want pasta, too. *sits down and hands PandaK of of the two nice plates of campellini pomodoro*....at least it has some veggies in it.
@BridgetAileen
I usually go by this rule: if you're gonna succumb to a craving, let it just be a tiny special treat that you have like every 100 years. That's what makes them so much enjoyable to eat! :D
@PoliteOcean I like this chart a lot! thank you!
@LadybugandLadyVenus
you are so very welcome! I'm glad you found it useful!
@PoliteOcean
I eat soooo many pumpkin seeds this time of year! I normally try to roast some of my own from pumpkins I carve but that didn't happen this year. Luckily a natural foods store near me sells them in bulk!
@DancingAlong
I used to eat them ALL the time as a kid... I don't think I had "pumpkin" seeds in years!... But yes they are yummy :) I LOVE everything pumpkin!
@PoliteOcean, I love everything pumpkin, too! This time of year is like heaven! Cranberries, squash, pumpkins, warm spices like cloves and cinnamon....Ahhhhh! 
@BridgetAileen
Oh I know Bridget.... Im so ready for the Holidays and all of those things!
@PoliteOcean
Oh yeah. Water is made of 100 percent water. beat that ;)

@Mrcheeku
You're welcome! Glad it can be of help to you! :)
This is a great thread, @Politeocean
@dancingRainbow45
Thanks so much for sharing!
@PoliteOcean No worries, Tumeric apparently is also very good when used in helping to maintain health of dogs also :)
@dancingRainbow45
Hmm...I already knew it was good and had properties that could help with inflammation, but didn't know it was good for dogs also... Interesting. I have a puppy.
@dancingRainbow45, Yummy! Now I want Indian food.
