YOU WERE BORN TO BE REAL NOT PERFECT!

🙌🏻I’ve written this many times, but again over the Easter break I considered that if we are all eating so well why is our population’s girth growing?

🙆🏼‍♀️Why are so many suffering from DIABETES, HEART DISEASE, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE & CHOLESTEROL.

🙆🏼‍♀️If we know what we should be eating - then why aren’t we eating it?

🙆🏼‍♀️A friend brought a lovely salad to dinner & I enjoyed it & thought I’d make it until I realised it had lots of honey PLUS brown sugar in it.

😳Was the sugar necessary?

😳Have we got use to everything containing sugar - so that unless it’s sweet we dont eat it?

💗I’m often the other way, as I don’t eat a lot of sweet, I therefore find some foods overly sweet?

😳I can’t remember the last time I drank some lemonade or coke, but I know when I did, I felt like I was drinking pure sugar concentrate!

👍🏻If you know what foods you should predominately eat - Are you eating them?

👍🏻If not - why not? As to cook some chicken, or an egg or throw together is salad is not time consuming?

😌Why are we increasing our girth & thus buying the next size up and then the next not given more consideration?

👍🏻I know HABIT plays a huge role in making a change. We can all build a habit of a way of eating.

👍🏻BUT we should know we can all change a HABIT - it only takes some focus and effort!

If you don’t know what you should be eating then ask yourself these questions:

-❓Does what I’m eating contain ingredients I dont understand?

- ❓Does what I’m eating come from Nature?

- ❓Are the foods I’m eating contain vitamins, minerals and offer nutrients to my body?

- ❓Is the drink I’m having contain sugar?

👍🏻Eat whole foods, with as little human intervention as possible, but keep it REAL & occasionally & thats the key word occasionally enjoy some not PERFECT foods, but if the balance is more of the foods with ingredients then the balance / habit needs to change!

👍🏻Have a sort out this long weekend of the pantry & fridge. Make this weekend the weekend you head to be HEALTHIER.
