Vacation Bible School
- Healthy Snacks, Healthy Alternatives
  
I fondly recall waiting
as a child for that almost magical Vacation Bible School break
of cookies and punch. There is nothing quite like the
combination - which is still the standard 'refreshment' for
this memorable event in a child's life!
If sandwiches
were provided, they generally came in the form of tuna fish,
pimento cheese and peanut butter (with or without jelly). I
remember my mom instructing me to only eat hers, because she
wasn't sure how good a housekeeper some of the other members
of the church were.
If your church is among
those that participate in this time-honored event, step in to
do your part in making refreshment time a healthy event. Although
peanut butter is ultra healthy, many moms mix it with unhealthy
syrups and sugars to make it tastier. Jam may be added to that.
Tuna
fish has now been tagged with
some aggressive warnings from the USDA. As for pimento cheese,
it generally comes in the form of cheese food rather than crafted
with REAL cheese. Add Mayo to that, and we're in serious Health
Trouble.
Some healthier alternatives
for Vacation Bible School include: hot dogs prepared with the
low-fat alternative wieners and basted with mustard rather than
Mayo, ham sandwiches - again spread with a little sunshine,
tortilla roll-ups prepared with light ingredients, assorted
fresh fruit and juice. A healthy body begins with a solid
foundation, one that is built
during childhood.

Weight Loss Motivators
While trying to lose weight, make a short list of things that
you will use as rewards once you reach a certain weight
loss amount, or a certain date. Just like God
rewards us, we should also reward ourselves because
giving doesn't always mean sacrifice.
- A new outfit in a smaller size.
- Enjoy a celebration dinner with a loved one.
- A day at a spa just for pampering.
