Happy organizing and have a great weekend!
Lori, I cannot believe I just found this! Your organization has made me so happy. As a foodie I am always trying to find ways to better organize my working space and these photos and tips are just what I needed! Maybe you could guest write on my blog with more tips you may have! Thanks again, Millie
Millie- thank you so much! I would love to send a guest blog. Just let me know what topic in particular you would like to see and we can share with your readers. Likewise, I checked your site and I am truly on board with “Lean and Luscious”. I am always trying to find ways to cut calories, sugars and fats without cutting taste. Lori
Lori, thank you so much! I was wondering if you could share how you would organize your kitchen if you’re trying to lose weight? Or maybe you can share one of your favorite healthy recipes for after the holidays? I am so glad you are on board with the Lean and Luscious lifestyle!
Thanks, Millie
HI Mille- Organizing the kitchen for weight loss is something I have personally done. Even though I have a large family, I was still able to “lean clean” my kitchen to a great degree, getting rid of the high fat, high sugar foods. There were a few items that my husband “needs”, so the snack foods were placed either very high in the pantry (he is quite tall), or extremely low. If you have to really dig to the back of a really low cabinet to get to the snacks in a weak moment, it helps keep the cravings at bay. Putting fruit on the counter and keeping cut carrots and celery in a bowl filled with water (keeps them very crisp) in the fridge is a great way to always have the healthier foods right at eye level and within reach. I also keep a cinnamon spice candle burning, which for some reason, helps me stay away from the pantry if I happen to be working at home. Lastly, when I am tired, I eat. If I have lots of light in my kitchen, I tend to be less apt to grab the foods that I need to stay away from.
My two cents, Lori
Hi Lori,
Hi Lori Thanks for the great Tips! I will let you know when the guest blog is scheduled and of course link your site a bunch of times so my readers know where the great content came from! Have a Happy Holidays!
