Healthy Summer Eating Tips
Healthy eating should be a year long goal but it always seems to me that it’s easier to eat healthy in the summer. I love going to the store and stocking up on all the important essentials, chicken, fish and fresh fruit and veggies.
The major thing to remember is that you must PLAN. You need to plan what you will buy, plan what you will cook, plan when you will cook it and then plan when you will eat it. Get into the habit of going to the grocery store once per week and make a huge list. Going to the store whenever you need something is the kiss of death because you’re not planning at all and you are more likely to give in to cravings.
Some quick summer eating tips:
- Grill whenever possible. Use the grill for fish, chicken, lean meat and veggies. It’s quick and easy and always healthy.
- Pick up lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. This is the season that everything is good so stock up on a variety of berries, veggies and leafy greens.
- Drink plenty of ice cold water. It’s much easier when it’s hot so down a few Nalgene bottles each day and you will be feeling great. Add some lemon or lime for a bit of flavor
- Give yourself one cheat day. Allow yourself a treat or go out for ice cream. This will keep the cravings away because your body knows that you can actually have it at some point. Reward your hard work but don’t go crazy.
Now here’s a look into my kitchen and what I typically eat each day. Check it out.
