What does make sense: taking good care of yourself, eating healthy, and exercising. Really, trust us.”

Eat pure & unprocessed

No packets and bags, but eat as much as possible as mother intended of course. Choose products with the shortest possible ingredient list. The longer, the more nonsense there is often in it. Make as much as possible yourself, then you at least know for sure what is and is not in your dish.

Eat a varied diet

Vegetables, fruit, seeds, kernels, nuts, legumes, dairy, fish, meat, crustaceans, and shellfish eat it all! The more variety, the more diversity of nutrients you get.

Do not eliminate foods

Unless you have an allergy or intolerance – in which case you should eliminate that product – it is best to ensure as much variety as possible in foods and substances. Many diets skip almost entire groups of foods or substances. For example, years ago it was ‘in’ not to eat carbohydrates. And then fat was the devil again. But dear people: we need carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to live! We cannot function without it. It is then again about the right proportions and that these macronutrients (so-called carbohydrates, fat, and proteins) come from a good diet.

Don’t follow a crash diet

A crash diet is disastrous. For all. For your metabolism, your mood, and ultimately for your weight. It has been proven that in the end people often gain more from a crash diet than they lose weight. Try not to think of a healthy lifestyle as a diet. It is not. A diet is something temporary, your lifestyle something forever.

Sin occasionally

Sin is healthy! I don’t think the words are alike for nothing. A good ratio in healthy vs. I find the 80-20 rule less healthy. 80% of the time you choose healthy food. The other 20% you take whatever you feel like. Yes, even if this comes from a package or bag or is full of white (ahhh!!) sugars. If you deny yourself everything, your new healthy lifestyle cannot be maintained. Make sure it is in balance.

Sport!

Get off your lazy ass and get some exercise. Choose a sport that you really enjoy, then it is not a must, but you go for fun. Or at least ‘almost for fun, if you’re a real sports hater. I think exercising three times a week is a good, attainable number. But don’t be blind to that. Remember that everything is better than nothing. So take that bike instead of that car, take the stairs instead of the elevator and take a walk during your lunch break instead of sliding into your ass sandwiches with cheese. Exercise has so many benefits: more energy, a better mood, feeling better (literally and figuratively), and medical benefits such as lowering the risk of certain diseases.

Reduce stress to a minimum

Stress is also disastrous. For all. Just like that crash diet. Crashing also gives you stress, so that’s doubly bad. Stress causes some people to eat a lot and eat poorly, others no longer have a bite to eat. For me, stress manifests itself very physically: sore neck and shoulders, trouble with my intestines, trembling eye, or worse: losing all eyelashes… yes due to stress! I know from experience how difficult it is to avoid a certain source of stress but try it anyway. And make sure you also get your rest by getting enough sleep, relaxing, and, for example, by doing yoga or mindfulness.

Smile & enjoy

If you laugh a lot, you will experience less stress. So do fun things. Meet up with friends, go to the movies, a night out, to a festival… whatever, but have fun. And enjoy life, (healthy) food, and the people around you. Laughter also burns calories.

Set achievable goals

If you decide to change course and start living healthier, you will now first get a big high five from me, but also the tip to set achievable goals. A six-pack within a month may not be completely realistic. Never eat chocolate again. And losing 25 kilos in 2 months certainly not at all. If your goals are not realistic, the chances of failure are much higher. If you have to lose 25 kilos, set sub-goals and reward yourself when you have achieved a first (sub) goal.

Don’t stare at the scales

A scale can cause a lot of frustration and I know that from my own experience. Standing on that thing every day is nonsense. Of course, the scale does say something, it is not completely out of the blue. But if you want to know if you’re making progress (lose weight, tone up, etc.) there are better ways to find out. For example, measure certain body parts with a tape measure. You can also take your clothes as a gauge. Are those fave jeans starting to feel tight? Then you pay extra attention until it is right again. You can also have a fat measurement done by a dietitian or at the gym. Best of all, just look in the mirror. Do I like what I see or not? That’s what it’s all about!
