Finding a balance between eating and drinking healthfully and enjoying what you're
consuming can be tricky. Remember that being more mindful of making health-
conscious decisions doesn't mean you have to eat a salad for every meal.
This issue of Gatherings magazine offers real solutions to help you and your family
make good choices this year. Be sure to check out our Kids Club section on page 16,
where we discuss using ChooseMyPlate.gov as a resource for meal planning. Not only
will this helpful website assist with packing kids' lunches, you can use it as a guide for
making healthy choices for the entire family.
Trying to stick to that new diet this year? Think again. We suggest focusing instead
on eating real, whole, unprocessed foods, cutting out some sugar, staying hydrated,
and watching portion sizes. If you can manage these four things, there's no need for a
diet. You'll find that you're able to stay on track if you change your lifestyle, rather than
trying to stick with an unrealistic fad diet. We've included many recipes in this issue (see
Overnight Oats on page 7, Soft-Boiled Eggs on page 20, and One Pan Meals on page
25) that help you to stay away from processed meals, while still cutting down on prep
time and clean up.
Be well!

consume. Instead of carefully tracking every ounce throughout the day,
