I don't know about you but it sure can be a little more challenging to eat veggies for breakfast in the winter.

In the summer, no problem. I love doing veggie smoothies - a little spinach, a little celery, and a little cucumber with protein powder, Greens First, and some avocado and I'm good to go!

Winter, on the other hand, required more creative thinking especially because I can't eat a lot of eggs or I will get hives. So instead of saying "This won't work for me" I decided to brainstorm, "How can this work for me?"

It wasn't too long before my brain came up with the answer...see our brains love to problem solve...so I decided to have it work for me, not against me.

Soup. My brain's creative solution was soup. I love soup!

It is warm in the winter unlike a cold veggie smoothie, I can have all different kinds, and usually soup is leftover from dinner so all I had to do was warm it up. Problem solved.

Is there something that you know you should be doing to improve your health but have heard yourself saying, "that won't work for me" ? Try asking yourself a different question. You just might get a better answer.
