Do you suck at eating?
Maybe your doctor told you that you need to lose weight. Maybe you’re sick and tired of being the self-deprecating big guy/girl in your group of friends. Maybe you just had your first kid and realized you need to be there for him growing up. Maybe you woke up this morning, looked in the mirror, and finally came to the realization that it’s time to start taking care of yourself.
Whatever your reason is for wanting to make a change, you’re not alone! Every day, thousands of people make the decision to start eating better and losing weight…and every day those thousands of people don’t really have any plan or idea what they’re doing.
After all, there are so many freaking decisions to be made:
Should I follow the food pyramid?
Should I be counting all of my calories?
What about “heart healthy” whole grains?
Should I do this juice diet all of my coworkers are on?
How many Twinkies can I fit in my mouth?
Fear not.
Today you’re going to learn the basics of a healthy diet so you can stop sucking and start living better. This is a relatively long article (3500+ words), so feel free to wait until you’re on you’re lunch break to really dig in…or just shun your work for the next 30 minutes and enjoy. Tell your boss you’releveling up your life…he’ll understand.
