How can a person get into the mindset of eating healthfully?
The first thing to consider is making time to celebrate your meals. Don’t just eat to re-fuel. Next, get all six tastes into your meals: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, astringent, and pungent. This will help satiate you on all levels. Then add some texture to your meals. Have something crunchy or chewy to entertain your eating experience. Finally, know that the basic premise to following a healthy food plan is to live the “80/20 rule.” Make conscientious choices 80% of the time; for the other 20% of time, go ahead and indulge! You deserve it!
