We all have our cravings and things that we LOVE to eat, but do we really think about what we are consuming and how they can affect our bodies?
When you indulge (if you must), you must have balance and do so sparingly.
Yes, you can eat what you want, but you cannot do it all the time and expect to lead a healthy life. You cannot eat bread every day, day and expect it to not lead to health issues. As much as you may love your sweets, you cannot have them every day, multiple times a day.
With everything in your life, the only way to be happy and healthy is to have balance.
How To Overcome This Problem:
To overcome healthy eating, know that it starts inside of your mind.
You have to acknowledge where the problems lie before you can think of making next steps.
Make baby steps if you cannot completely change your habits immediately.
Create a schedule for yourself and limit your eating.
Eliminate fatty, greasy, heavy, sugary, processed foods.
Eat more greens, veggies, fruits, and grains.
Drink lots of water every day.
Be mindful of your eating habits.
You are not necessarily bound by traditions. We choose to do things including our eating habits.
Just like many other things, treating yourself is okay and you deserve it but think about it first.
Be happy in the skin that you are in, but do whatever it takes to lead a healthy life- your body and your family will thank you for taking care of yourself, setting a good example, and extending your life.
The challenge in this life is to do what is right; the same applies to your life and what you consume. Your family and those that you are blessing are counting on you to live your best life.
You get one body and no tomorrow’s are not guaranteed, but wouldn’t you rather live a healthy life than an unhealthy one?
Love yourself from the inside out and watch how things change.
If you are not prepared to live your best life how do you expect great things to happen in your life?
1 Corinthians 3:16-17
“Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is sacred, and you are that temple”. You are an amazing part of something beyond your knowledge and your imagination. God made you in his image and you are supposed to take care of yourself; this means inside and out. You one beautiful part of this universe and the universe is inside of you, you must be mindful of this and live a good life.
Proverbs 10:17
“The road to life is a disciplined life; ignore correction and you’re lost for good”. Motivation will not always come easy and you must do what it takes to lead a disciplined life; it is in your best interest. If someone shows you or teaches you something that is good for you, it can only benefit you…
I want you to live a long, happy, healthy life, so do whatever it takes to have that.
Know that you do not need to follow any fads or common diets, and do not starve yourself. Smaller portions and regulated eating schedules will change your life. There are many methods of healthy eating, you have the world at the tips of your fingers; use the sound knowledge that you find on the internet. If you have any true questions, find a nutritionist or health provider that you trust.
All that you want and dream of can happen if you take care of yourself and if you are consistent in all that you do.
I believe in you and I want you to be healthy from the inside out. Put in the work, you deserve it.
Be blessed and be at peace.

Heart Disease- This disease and many others are linked unhealthy eating. There are over 600,000 people that die of heart disease and it is a leading cause of death for men and women. Annually, there are over 700,000 heart attacks in America (CDC). Pay attention to discomfort, shortness of breath, nausea, lightheadedness, and upper body pain. Listen to your body’s signs of heart disease and physical sickness. If you are eating poorly, change it while you still can; it is much easier to prevent than it is to treat. Think wisely. Make the changes that you can, and do whatever you can to create natural healing. As always, seek the help of a physician when you are in need.
