We love reading blogs and watching on you tube what I eat in a day videos. It’s great for new recipe ideas. You have to be careful not to compare what you eat in a day however, compared to what someone else eats in a day. Make sure you eat the diet and quantity of food that works for you. What works for someone else may not work well for you and that’s okay!
There is so much information out there these days it is almost impossible to know what is the truth. Should I be eating carbs after 6, is sugar the enemy, will protein make me lean, are super foods really that much better than other grains? The questions are endless! But the truth is the best thing to do is to listen to your own body.
No food is bad in small quantities, if you want some chocolate have some chocolate it’s not going to kill you! We have never really understood ‘cheat’ or ‘treat’ days, instead you should eat a well balanced diet and instead incorporate those ‘bad’ meals into your diet by making them slightly healthier a good way to start would be to make your food by scratch.
