Eating disorders affect a person’s physical, emotional, and spiritual well being. How you handle stress and eating habits can have an impact on healthy living, especially on healthy weight management.
Tips include:
- Healthy eating starts at home with a balanced breakfast. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends eating breakfast consisting of whole grains, lean proteins, fruits and vegetables.
- Pack a lunch and be prepared to eat healthier and save money by avoiding fast food restaurants.
- If you must eat out, do some research in advance and locate a restaurant that offers healthy meal options.
- A healthy mid-morning and mid-afternoon snack is a good thing.
- Avoid mindless eating while at your desk or in between patients.
- Remember portion control.
- Read your food labels – nutrition labels are the key to making smarter and healthier food choices.
When you begin to notice that eating habits are affecting your life, your happiness, and your ability to concentrate, it’s important that you talk to somebody about what you’re going through.
