START THE DAY RIGHT
You may not be in control of lunch or dinner, but control what you eat when you wake up!
Make it rich with Protein, Fibre and Energy.
Try a giant Green Smoothie, fruit-based Protein Shake, a Spinach Omelette or hard boiled Eggs!
STOCK UP ON HEALTHY SNACKS
The Supermarkets and Pharmacies near you may be closed.
Stock up with Fruits and Veggies. Have Fruits as a snack or make a fresh Salad.
PLAN EXERCISE WITH A LOVED ONE
Go for a Power Walk or Jog.
If it’s a group of you, play a little scrimmage, go for a swim, try morning Yoga, whatever the vibe !
DRINK A LOT OF WATER. FLAVOUR IT!
Add Cucumber and Lemon slices in your glass of water for a clean, refreshing taste. Have before each meal so that feel fuller for longer.
DON’T DEPRIVE YOURSELF, BUT SET LIMITS
Have Dark Chocolate instead of white or milk. Take note and follow serving suggestions.
Have 1-2 glasses of alcohol, preferably Wine.
Peep Monster? Love yuh Bun & Cheese? Have after you’ve filled up on veggies & protein and eat slowly! Savour each bite.
***BONUS TIP***
GET REST! SLEEP!

You should know or get to know your body and patterns, how you feel when you eat certain foods.
? HEADACHES
Possibly due to high Sodium and Dairy
?ACNE
Bad carbs and NOT Grease, trigger Acne, such as carb-heavy fast foods like french fries, potato chips, hamburger buns, which may lead to acne breakouts

Which Restaurant would you like to see with a proper Digital Picture menu?
I would like to see a few of my faves, Koi Sushi (Ig: @koisushija), Orchid Thai Restaurant (Ig: @orchidthaijamaica) and Nirvanna Global (Ig: @nirvannaglobalja) with one.
Waiting it out a little, but does the new Buzo Jamaica(Ig: @buzo.jamaica) have one?
Visueats is revolutionising the dining experience led by two phenomenal women in tech, Sophronia McKenzie and Tanesha Westcarr.
With Instagram, TikTok and more, we’ve been eating with our eyes. By seeing the dishes before they come out of the kitchen, Visueats allows us to choose what we want to eat without spying on plates passing by. Appetise with your eyes from the Menu first!
You could also get a headstart from home with the Visueats app. I encourage Restaurants to get with it and sign up!

Diana Blake-Taylor, familiarly known to the Central Florida Community as Lady D, has invited me to be a guest on her Global Diaspora Show during Women’s History Month!
After leaving Jamaica in the late 60s, Lady D has worked through her business ventures, humanitarian efforts and her radio programmes to bring the Caribbean expatriates in Central Florida together for 41 years!
Because of Lady D, many Caribbean Businesses are now easily found in Central Florida and she has been recognized by the Florida House of Representatives for her significant contributions.
Kudos for spreading our Caribbean Culture Lady D! I’m honoured to be asked to be on your show. See you later at 2PM Florida Time/1PM JA Time!
Have a great Weekend!
