Especially being in a microwave type generation where most people want things now, or within 15 seconds.. hot and read.. In saying this, healthy eating doesn’t have to be all or nothing! The ‘ON/OFF’ light switch type of dieting can be terminal to actually sustaining healthy living.
Here are some tips for incorporating healthy eating habits into your everyday life:
