I think my life is 100xbetter being healthy and enjoying life for what it is and only occasionally partying than what I did my freshman year.
Is it hard for you to eat healthy? What makes you shy away from healthy eating? Please let me know.
Thanks!
The hardest part is variety. I found that buying cook books geared towards healthy eating have helped. Other than that, I like to eat healthy..I just feel better overall.
Because if I don’t see results in a few years time, would getting liposuction help to kick start a new healthy eating plan? And I would also like to get it if I don’t see results to make me feel better. I know that it wont make me fitter, or healthier. But like I stated. Is it a good way to kick start a new healthy eating plan?
well not really, you’ve got a few years to see results! That is plenty of time to change an unhealthy lifestyle. Just find ways of motivating yourself to get there!
You can eat healthy at whatever age right? Im 14 and my mom thinks Im too young to be eating organic/healthy.

Wow… just… wow!
Of course you should eat healthy at any age! It is especially important for children to eat healthy. It really breaks my heart when I see obese mothers feeing their obese toddlers cola and junk food… argh!
You need healthy, wholesome food for your growing brain and body. What you do now plays a role in your health as an adult, especially when you become old. Do you want to be sick all the time? No, of course not! That’s why you have to eat healthy!
Now, that doesn’t mean you can’t have "junk" once in a while. Moderation is the key.

I’m soooo fussy when it comes to food – I’m not too keen on fruit – I’ll eat the odd apple from time to time but that’s about it. I don’t like nuts or seeds to some extent & every healthy eating article says about snacking on nuts, seeds & fruit. Can anyone recommend anything else which helps you to loose weight but isn’t fruits/nuts or suchlike?
Fruits, nuts and seeds belong in the carbohydrates section. Fruits also gives you fiber. Nuts and seeds give you protein too. You’ll need replacements.
You need the basic three nutrients in food: carbohydrates (a type of sugar), fats and proteins.
You can replace the fiber you get from fruit by eating more vegetables or whole-grain products. You should eat about 25 grams of fiber a day for healthy eating.
Fruit, nuts and seeds can be replaced as carbohydrates by potatoes, cassava, yams, taro, dried peas, dried beans, grains, rice, sugar, milk, candy. I recommend milk. It gives you fat (giving you more energy) and it contains calcium and protein too! That could be your protein replacement.
I hope I helped. If you need some recipes to find out what you can eat as a fussy eater try these sites. All the recipes are healthy and contain information about the nutritional value. That way you can see how much of each nutriet you’re eating everyday.
I want to start eating healthy- but I want the food to be yummy too. What are some basics for healthy eating? What are some healthy food staples to keep in the house? Any advice on healthy food eating would be great. Thanks!
eat yummy food but make sure it’s not too much. eat protein in the morning because it’ll tone down your hunger later. lunch should be your biggest meal and dinner should be your smallest. just control the amount you eat and don’t eat when you know you’re full because it’s going to waste or you just still want to eat it.
After having a healthy diet for a few weeks I don’t like the idea of eating junk food. Is this because my body feels good that way.
sure does! so does a lot of exercise 
What channel and what radio station do they come on and what time they come on?
I want to educate myself about healthy eating. Thanks to whoever gives me the best information and i wont forget your 10 points.
If you have cable/sky you can watch the Food Channel (cable 260) there’s a show called Healthy Appetite where a dietician called Ellie cooks up some amazing dishes that uses minimal healthy oil (canola) and uses lots of herbs/spices to make things taste really good without it being stodgy, or laden in fats. there’s also good chef, bad chef that was shown some time ago, but i’m not sure if it’s on sky still but it gives you two cooks cooking similar meals one with healthy ingredients and the other normal.
bbc food website is a great place to start it gives you plenty of advice, ideas for simple great yummy dishes
More importantly, how do you get them to START with the healthy eating habits and quit the bad ones?
How do you tell your child they cannot have that second cookie, or that cone of ice cream and avoid their disappointment?
What were some things you did with your children to get them to PREFER eating healthier?
My daughter loved to eat vegetables and fruit. I didn’t have a lot of ice cream and cookies but on a front room table (that she could reach) I had grapes and apples and oranges. She never had to ask if she could eat them. I let her. They were always there and within her reach. BTW we called broccoli – trees and cauliflower – flowers. They were in the fridge already pre cut and cleaned for her.
