Healthy Eating for Real People

But especially, this is for Dogan, the love of my life. Always.

Having said this, I actually struggle with the notion that you should only eat a certain ‘size’ of meal. Instead, I would prefer you to listen to your body and know when you’ve had enough. A large nutritious, balanced meal will do you more good than a small portion of processed food. It’s also really important to take into consideration what you eat over a whole day, not just at one meal…and how much you move. If I am having a busy day with the children, running around all day long, I can get really hungry and eat a larger portion of food than usual. But as long as my intake and output are matched, I’m in good shape. Obviously, if I’m having a calmer day, maybe sitting at my computer writing, then my output is lower, so my intake needs to be lower. It’s not rocket science and you don’t have to be an expert to work it out–but you do need to get in tune with your body and work out if you are eating because you’re hungry, or for some other reason. Having said all of that, if you are overweight and would like to lose some weight, do make an effort to cut your portion sizes across the board. Using a smaller plate is always a good starting point, and always try to have your vegetable portion larger than your meat or carbohydrate portion. Good luck–you can do it!

TOO BUSY TO EXERCISE?
