An Easy Meal Planning Guide to Help You Stay Healthy


We all love food and fine dining. Well, who doesn’t? However, it is very important that we watch what we eat and control our urge to binge or excessively overindulge in food because that could spell trouble and disaster for us later down the road. Hence, it is very important that you design a healthy meal plan that suits your lifestyle but at the same time, does not take away the joy of eating from you. This can be done by simply look at what you eat every day and replace the food item with low calorie options. I will provide some examples below.

What do people usually eat for breakfast? Without any doubt, I am pretty sure that the answer will invariably be eggs, omelet and pancakes. You do not want to be consuming those for your breakfast daily because they are high in fat and calories. This is what you should do. Firstly, replace the eggs and omelette with scrambled tofu or egg white. Tofu and egg white have more protein and less fat than conventional farm eggs. Also, make sure you eat whole grain pancakes and dress it up with zero calorie syrup. This is one healthy way to keep your body lean.

What then do most people have for dinner? The usual stuff would be pasta, burgers and steak. Again, you do not have to make major sacrifices. For your pasta, you would want to opt for the whole grain variation because it keeps you full for a longer period of time and thus, reduce your cravings for midnight snacks. Beef burgers and quarter pounders are tasty but unhealthy. Replace them with chicken or vegan burgers because they contain less fat. When it comes to steak, avoid dark meat and opt for salmon steak instead to get the full nutrition of omega 3 and fatty acids.

With these steps in mind, you should now go ahead and structure a healthy meal plan that is going to suit your lifestyle.
