Now that summer is officially here and it is inevetable that we have to get into a suit at the pool, we better be sure and get that workout in and choose healthy foods to eat.
Lots of time spent at the pool means that you need quick easy snacks to pack for the kids to eat. Avoid grabbing the box of Cheezits and fruit snacks. Instead pack some more refreshing snacks, that are better for you, like grapes, celery and peanut butter, carrots, yogurt, pretzels, etc. Forget the Gatorades and Power Drinks that are loaded with sugar and take water. You will be sitting there eating/drinking them while either watching the kids swim, or reading a book. Most likely you will not be swimming to burn a lot of calories so don't take food that is high in fat and calories that will just go to your hips! Think smart and pack healthy for everyone.
I would love to hear any favorite healthy treats that you like to take to the pool.
