You make a resolution to eat healthier, but it doesn't happen or you don't keep it up. These tips will help you on your way.
1. Go through your kitchen cupboards
Look at what's in your cupboards. Give away the unhealthy temptations and make a shopping list with healthy products that you miss, but will need for your healthier lifestyle.
2. Make plans
Especially in the beginning, work with shopping lists, schedules and weekly menus. Changing your lifestyle takes some getting used to and that will not happen automatically in the beginning.
3. Prepare yourself
Working with weekly menus helps you prepare better. On a night when you are in a rush, eat a quick but healthy bite. For example, the leftovers from your dinner are the basis for your lunch tomorrow or you can prepare your lunch for work the night before. Good planning and preparation ensure that you stick to the plan faster.
4. Vary with food
To get all the different nutrients, it is important to eat a healthy and varied diet. Try out a new recipe regularly that fits your new lifestyle.
5. Eat enough vegetables
Vegetables shouldn't just be part of the dinner. Also add some vegetables to your breakfast and lunch.
