A New Term, A New Way To Look At Food...

Are you looking at food as the enemy? Forever tempting, something you can't eat too much of, something you shouldn't add salt to and something to take over your life..



But does it need to be that way?

Maybe you just need to shift the way you think about what you are putting into your body..

And think about it as exactly that - what you are putting into your body.


Food ultimately, is fuel.
Food made up of calories, which gives you the energy to get through the day.

And that's what you should be eating, the right type of foods to get you through your day.

Yes, it's obviously better to eat non processed foods on the whole, but that doesn't mean to you have to cut them out completely. That'll just leave you craving.
Eating healthier of course doesn't mean food becomes boring and bland.
Scroll through this blog for example and you'll get a snippet of how amazingly healthy and delicious food can be.

Calories are not evil, Calories are units of your body's fuel. 

Excessive calories come in the form of overly sugary pastries, cakes and biscuits. Although tasty, these foods may contain as many calories as a whole meal and not fill you up at all.

This of course doesn't stop you from eating said foods but the key is - everything in moderation!

Abandon the diet.
Start thinking of food as fuel rather than something to fear. 
Something to get you through the day.
And something you need to survive.
