YAY! That's awesome. Unfortunately, we were really poor when I was younger, so we didn't get the luxury of fresh fruits and veggies, it was all cheap frozen food and cheap ground beef and rice/beans/other not so good for you foods. You could just get more food for less money by buying crap food. I WISH I had been able to grow up eating as healthy as your kids are. Go Sara, you awesome mommy, you! :D
Ok, I walked 3 miles this morning and now drinking my warm lemon water. After walking, I really wish it could be cold. Are there different health benefits to the warm versus cold??
I love breakfast foods - LOVE them... but usually just a coffee and a yogurt for me - or a gran. bar .... weekends - a nice veggie egg white omelet :)
I don't think it will eliminate the benefits if you drink it as a cold drink instead, but I know your body uses far more energy when you drink a very cold or very hot drink. I happen to prefer my lemon water or the warmer side since I drink it in the morning, when other people would be drinking hot coffee, but it's really suggested to just be lukewarm for the morning. I pop a cup of water in the microwave for about 30/45 seconds and it's ready. I think it has to do with the warmth helping break up the fat and junk in your digestive system/liver. As for the rest of the day, I go cold ice water and lemon with stevia! Mmm! :)Quote:

I find that I drink more water if it's warm than I do cold. I hate ice cold water! I also eat breakfast everyday thanks to my hubby. He's the breakfast cook. Since we switched to a low carb diet, we eat eggs in a variety of ways everyday.
Here's a couple simple and delicious little nuggets we like to cook for breakfast.
