Healthy Food Guide And Menu Sample – Breakfasts, Lunches, Dinners And Snacks

Hi Everyone,

I’ve been asked more questions about writing a healthy food guide and menu sample for at least a week. I thought this was a great idea because I noticed people only struggle with nutrition when they don’t have the right guidance. I’ve put together a lot of great ideas and gathered up all the posts and recipes I’ve written that would help you with healthy food options. This is how I eat on a regular basis and I hope this will help you to expand your menu of healthy choices.

Love That Workout Recovery Snack!

So you just worked out. Great, but as much as you should be satisfied with
yourself, you’re not done yet. As any good athlete knows, half of exercise is
recovery, meaning you need to recharge all the resources you’ve drained/damaged over
the last hour. That, in turn, means you get to eat! When you work your muscles, a number of things happen internally, including
muscle break down. You experience millions of little micro-tears that need to be
repaired. When they do, they come back stronger. That’s how we build muscle.

The Truth About Dark Chocolate ( Updated with a video )

The other day I was on Youtube and I accidentally saw a video of one girl who was really suffering from being over weight. This girl was in so much emotional pain that I almost cried my self. She had a big problem with food, but mainly sweets and chocolate. One of the comments she made startled me a little, she said ” Today, I don’t feel as bad because I went to the store and bought only 2 bars of dark chocolate, and since dark chocolate is healthy, I know that I can’t gain weight from it “. The first thing came to my mind is, I knew that she probably has no idea which dark chocolate is healthy, because most that are on the market are not. Now let’s answer some questions about dark chocolate.

Diet Challenge – Break Out Of The Diet Box And Listen To Your Body

As I was reading the Glamour magazine a few days ago, I found something quite interesting, an article about a diet called “Snob Diet”. Personally I run the other way when I hear a word diet, because in the past I’ve experimented with few of those so called diets just to say I’ve tried it, and all of them got me to the same place – sleepless, deprived and depressed. But I wanted to give it a read anyway just so I could of rolled my eyes and said, wow this is ridiculous.

The Incredible Benefits Of Aloe Vera Juice

” Let your food be your medicine, and let your medicine be your food”. I found this quote, I am not sure who it’s by but this quote represents everything I believe in when it comes to Nutrition. It surprises me that so many people still don’t know that food is medicine, it is something that will prevent us from getting sick at it is also something that will help us heal if we are.

Is It Healthy To Always Eat Healthy?

I’ve been contemplating to write on this topic for quite some time now. There are a lot of mixed opinions out there about this topic, – eating healthy all the time without taking a break. Some people believe that it is NOT OK to give your self a break and give into some not so healthy food choices, because it can create further cravings and mess up their goals. I would like to share some of my own opinions and experiences with always eating healthy without taking a break.
