Food Pyramid

How was the first week of your healthy lifestyle, it must be good yea. I bet you're already felt good about yourself with this kind of lifestyle. How did your meal plan go, did you separate them to 4 - 6 meals a day? What kind of diet are you applying?



These kind of question are usually ask by fitness coach, nutritionist or GP. There is so many kind of diet and which to follow. Are you confuse? You shouldn't because the best and the healthiest diet is the one that provide balance in your daily meal. Food is the answer to your healthy lifestyle. Even if you're able to run 10km but still consuming high fatty food, the chances of you to get coronary hearth disease is still high.


You must change those unhealthy and process food that you consume. Instead of white or butter scotch bread purchase a whole meal or multi-grain bread. Instead of drinking those process fruit juice its better to eat actual fruits. Home prepare salad provide high in good nutrition than those being pack and left for days.



If you do have a health condition it is best to refer to the specialist before starting any kind of diet. Those who are free from any health condition feel free to try the vegan diet because this diet will make you lose weight but it is not suitable for those who wish to gain weight due to lack of calories consumption.

Here are some type of daily routine that you can practice and even tho if you do have a health condition that doesn't mean you can't do them as a daily routine. Stop giving excuse and make your lifestyle a healthy lifestyle.
