The picture above says it all and really there should be nothing more said, but in reality I always have something to say and what is mentioned above cannot be said enough!
I hate to say it guys, but it does not get any simpler or more complicated than that. You do not have to follow the latest diet with the cool name or count points or calories. It is as simple as eating a clean, healthy diet. Sorry to disappoint.
But wait you say, "it can't be as easy as that?" Well, it is and it is not. We are all unique, special individuals and it all comes down to bio-individuality.
Bio-individuality essentially means we are all our own unique person and what makes me click and run will not necessarily make you click and run. Make sense?
That is why it is important for you to be the one who decides what works for you and what does not. Simple, clean, whole food eating is comprised of eating the food that God gave us to eat. This includes animals and food grown from the ground. Food that has been made and made up in a plant does not fit the bill. Big difference.
This is where your bio-individuality comes in. First off, you may be a vegetarian and do not eat animal products at all. That is your conviction and what makes you you. All I ask is that you are making sure you are getting your daily dosage of protein, vitamins and minerals so you do not become deficient and unhealthy.
Second, when you make the decision to get healthy you will be faced with a tremendous amount of data out there of what is considered the "way" to eat healthy. For every book, study, data that says one should not eat "xyz", there will be the same amount of books, studies and data that say the complete opposite.
What you read will sound convincing and true. Here's the deal, all them will be correct in some form or fashion. Some will say no form of wheat whatsoever, while others will say sprouted whole grains are ok. One will tell you no saturated fats from animals, another will say that is the way to go. Beans, diary, the list goes on.
The one thing they all have in common though, is simple, clean whole food. Not one book will suggest processed, sugared up , junk food as a choice.
At the end of the day it comes down to, you guessed it, bio-individuality and ultimately what your body can process and handle. You are the only one who knows your body and how it feels. Stop, feel, think and process your bodies reaction to a food. Take note of how it makes you feel, good or bad, bloated or full of energy.
The road to healthy is not an overnight ride. It took many years for us to get to where we are at and it will take time to get back our 100% health.
When I work with my clients, the first step we make is getting them to change their mindset from "losing weight' to "getting healthy".
If you are ready to make your healthy change but need some help and motivation, I can help. As a Certified Health Coach it is my goal and desire to make healthy the new normal.
To your health,
Sandra
