Eating a balanced diet

Eating a balanced diet – what does this mean?

• Stay Hydrated  – aim to include 2L of water per day
• Set SMART goals – you don’t have to do everything at once!
• Don’t skip protein – try to include protein in every meal or snacks you have
• Eat plenty of healthy fats (there is no need to choose “low fat” foods)
• Eat carbohydrates from vegetables
• Eat the rainbow – different coloured fruit and vegetables
• Limit sugar and processed foods
• Everything in moderation – it’s a journey and you need to enjoy this process. TRUST IT!
