Happy Eating

We all do it – some too much, some too little. Some do it on the sofa, some prefer it in bed. Eating is an essential part of our day and consequently should also be managed.

Not just when and where, but also what.

Good nutrition can take time, typically bad nutrition doesn’t. Sometimes, it’s all too easy to grab a packet of crisps on the hop and call it lunch.

But what nutritional value are you getting from this?

And how long will it keep your from feeling hungry again?

We all NEED to eat sensibly in order to boost our energy, keep our brain active and fend off illness. You will certainly be less productive if you are tired, lethargic or sick!

We recommend meal planning for the day, or even week, ahead; ideally compiling an agenda of what to have for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Just like your “To Do” list, it keeps you focused on your priorities, deterring your brain from “easy wins” like crisps. Your brain likes to conserve energy. If it doesn’t have to think about what your consuming, it wont, which is why you have to make a conscious effort to plan according to your nutritional goals.

If this this sort of planning proves just too overwhelming initially, begin with just catering for dinners; then progress onto lunch and dinners; then breakfast, lunch and dinners; then the whole day, snacks included!

Being quick, easy and satisfying doesn’t mean that you have to sacrifice nutrition!
