Day 8: Simple & Healthy Eating

October 8, 2013 by Traci

The most simple and healthy way to eat, is to eat food in their original, most natural state.

Whole Foods:

Foods that haven’t been messed with!  These foods are straight from the farm: fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low fat dairy, lean meat, unsalted nuts and seeds.

Eliminate Refined Sugar:
It provides nothing but calories, added blemishes, and trouble!

Avoid Processed Foods:
Any food that has a label!  I know, that’s probably everything in your cupboards!  You don’t have to eliminate all processed foods (like whole grain pasta or natural cheeses), but if you can’t pronounce an ingredient on a label, avoid eating it (within reason).

Avoid Eating Out:
For the most part, eat foods that you have prepared at home.  Also, instead of buying meals in a box, cook them from scratch.  Don’t worry, you don’t need to be a chef, just clean, whole foods that need a little chopping, sauteing, and seasoning to make them flavorful and ready!


Protein & Carbs Should Be A Partnership:
Make sure your meal or snack is balanced.  This will help fuel your body and diminish hunger pangs.

Five or Six Small Meals A Day:
By eating several small meals throughout the day, you can help boost your metabolism and reduce the chance that you’ll gorge on something not so good for you.
