Many people admit that they don’t have great eating habits, so how does one create a healthy diet? How do I start incorporating more healthy meals? These questions are on the forefront of many of our patients here at Backs in Action Wellness Centre, so we thought we would continue the discussion on 6 things to create a healthful diet!
If you haven’t already, be sure to read Part 1: How to Change Your Eating Habits
4) Be relaxed about your diet
Take your tastes and preferences into account when choosing what healthy foods to incorporate. If you love steak, it is okay to eat it just try to make it a treat and not a daily staple.
Remember the better your overall diet, the more room you have to indulge your passions.
5) Take a long range view
If you slip up from time to time, don’t get down on yourself.
If you worry about every mouthful, you will never get to enjoy your food. Instead remember that your nutritional peaks and valleys balance if your overall diet is healthy!
6) Portion Control is key
Replace 3 large meals with 5 smaller meals and eat more frequently throughout the day
