#repost . . ..from @foodtipz – Also check @topphysiquesprograms . . Healthy Day vs. Cheat Day Are you someone that thinks being super healthy is cutting and eliminating foods and food groupsDo you aim to stick to a rigid strict clean eating plan for as long as you can and then reward yourself with a #cheat day These tips are by @equalution : be mindful of when you think youre being #healthy because you may be consuming the same #energy density as the cheat day you loathe yourself after for! When it comes to your bodys recognition of the #foods we consume your #body sees #food not as good or bad but for its macronutrient value ie #protein #fats and #carbs … While some food is more #nutrient dense than others providing the body with a number of benefits no matter how healthy something is – consuming more #calories to what your body is burning will always amount in #weightgain no matter where that food is coming from. A #calorie surplus of raw treats #chicken #broccoli asparagus and #nuts can hinder your results if your numeric intake isnt right just as a full cheat day of soul food would. So whats the best approach? We believe #nutrition in its best practice is adhering to the intake needs of your body – both #macro and #micro nutrients according to an 80/20 approach. 80% #whole foods #lean #meats and #veggies and 20% #soul food – treats that make your mind and taste buds happy adherent and #binge -urge free. Unsustainable #diets cant be kept up. Youll not only resent every meal but also feel like a human ticking time bomb days away from an uncontrolled eating fest. Learn your bodys needs Meet these needs within reason how you enjoy #eating and Dont restrict yourself. – #
