Breakfast is by far my favorite meal of the day, but also the easiest to slip up on in the health department. With so many processed breakfast foods packed with sugar, simple carbohydrates and saturated fat, it’s no wonder why people often start their day with skyrocketing blood sugar levels that lead to hunger, cravings, fatigue and overeating later in the day.
We’ve all heard the old saying if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Though I don’t necessarily think that we should plan every last detail of our lives because that would be boring, I am a huge believer in meal planning.
The world of diet and nutrition advice is vast, and for most people confusing, frustrating and sometimes down-right ridiculous (maple syrup diet anyone?). We are constantly being bombarded with magazine articles, infomercials, books, blogs and celebrity spokespeople promising super fast, easy and lasting results, yet for some reason we still find ourselves wanting to stuff down Oreos while watching episodes of Biggest Loser. Just me? Oh.
Among the most common reasons I hear for why people are hesitant to make healthy changes to their diet is that eating healthy is too expensive. While it is true that fresh, quality products are more expensive item for item than processed, low-quality, “fast” foods, most people would be surprised how many ways there are to save money and still eat a healthy, whole and clean diet.
