It's been 3really long and hard weeks, but well-worth it. The dog (Phineas or Phin for short sometimes) is doing really well. He is just awesome! He helps me walk; he brings me my socks and shoes; he turns on and off the light switch; he opens the cupbords;he opens the refrigerator; he plays with his ball and bones--when out of harness. He is so special. I have some pictures of him on my website at the following: anthonyjsepe.com and click on the "my phineas" tab.

It seems that the Canada Food guide requires smaller portions of some things compared to the MyPyramid for females aged 18-50. However the grains servings were the same, if not more on the Canadian Food guide - 6 to 7 servings. That does seem life a ton to me.T.

Because I know it's just the bran part of the oat, so it's not whole, but it's also the most concentrated source of protein and fiber so it's definitely healthy.Evan Thomashttp://Foodmakesfunfuel.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287299798491768678.post-15216668586010117512010-07-19T09:46:32.465-04:002010-07-19T09:46:32.465-04:00ooh that Chipotle looks gooood!

I'm still amazed how hard it is to include whole grains in a diet - until I remember how HARD it is to get whole grains when eating out at a non "health food" restaurant. Even when the menu says "wheat bread", you know that ain't whole grains. I went to a restaurant once in VT and asked for whole grain pasta instead of regular, and the waitress laughed at me *eye roll* With the huge number of people eating a lot of their meals out, it's sometimes hard to get enough whole grains. That's why your tip to get whole grains at breakfast is a great one! :) My favorite whole grains are oats and quinoa. I'll be looking for brown rice sushi!Jessiehttp://thehappinessinhealth.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287299798491768678.post-6984737886372294842010-07-19T08:32:25.140-04:002010-07-19T08:32:25.140-04:00My list of favorite whole grains is pretty similar...My list of favorite whole grains is pretty similar to yours! :) For lunch, I often add a salad on top of a bed of some leftover brown rice or quinoa.
