@amiablePeace77  What does a healthy diet look like to you? I thikn it would be one with lots of fruits and veggies and adequate protein and not too many carbs.

How would you describe your diet? See above ! lol

@amiablePeace77

What does a healthy diet look like to you? i cnt describe it 

How would you describe your diet? kinda heathy

@amiablePeace77 a healthy diet well that looks like something I will finally be able to do one day. But for now my diet, well I try to keep my weight up to a good level, eating is just not always easy to force yourself to do.

hugs ami ❤

@amiablePeace77

That's food for thought!!

For starters, a healthy diet is out of reach for a lot of people who live too far away to have choices. If you live close to a variety of food markets with prices you can afford, you are among the lucky ones. You may also live in a country where prepared food ingredients are not the healthiest. Natural food stuff is expensive generally and not always as natural as claimed. Some of us have the space, money, knowledge and time to take care of a vegetable garden or even raising animals for your own consumption... but this is a rare privilege, being that most of us live in cities.

1) What does a healthy diet look like to you?

2)How would you describe your diet?

1) Homemade regular meals, a well-organized pantry and fridge, buying food in season, different main course everyday, planning menus a week ahead of time.... I am old enough to have known a time when there were "helpers" at home and nothing would go to waste, not even the kitchen scraps. 

2) Well, at least I eat a lot of local cheeses, vegetables, walnuts and fruits, but do not know what "regular meals" are any longer since I live alone. A real meal is when my son is around - he likes to cook. Otherwise, I eat open sandwiches (on French traditional bread with butter often), a home-made salad made up of diced raw veggies and legumes which can last a few days. I have a taste for bitter herbs and lettuces as well. I avoid stuff that is too sugary because it gives me reflux. My weight is stable and BMI around 20.  I ought to point out that I live in a hyper-rural area, so some food is actually free (game and river fish, for instance), I have an herb garden and all kinds of arrangements with my neighbours friends in the area. Desserts are few, because I am unable to stop once I have a pavlova or anything creamy.

Hi, 

What does a healthy diet look like to you?

- I love eating pizza but I don't eat it in access

-I try to eat a healthy breakfast

-Sometimes if my budget is tight, I try to eat peanut butter sandwiches

-I also make sure I have plenty of fruit, dairy

How would you describe your diet?

It's not the best in the world right now

What does a healthy diet look like to you?

I'd say it would be a diet that you're willing to maintain regularly and not feel pressure or shame to implement in your meals. it's also a diet that gives you gradual results, such as losing a few pounds over time and general health improvements, reminding you to take care of yourself on a daily basis.

How would you describe your diet?

I'm not on a diet, at the moment, but I try to make sure not to overeat or consume too many sugary foods or meals. Sometimes I stress eat via binge eating, but slowing down and eating only when I'm hungry helps to maintain my weight. As well, eating fermented food like kimchi, sauerkraut, and natto greatly reduces bloating for me.
