I have always admired the people who are very dedicated when it comes to their nutrition and control what types of food they consume. I have always been variable when it comes to my nutrition. Although, during the past few weeks I have changed my nutrition a little bit from what I am used to, I would like to share how I have managed the change.
During the past weeks I have learned to understand better the concepts of nutrition. For instance, I have gotten better at eating breakfast because that was one of the meals that I had always avoided. I never avoided breakfast on purpose, it would just happen. I would wake up late and rush myself to work and get caught up in my job that I would forget to eat the most important meal of the day. As I went through these past weeks, I tried harder to wake up a little earlier than normal just to make sure to eat something for breakfast and not leave to work with an empty stomach. I was never used to eating breakfast since my mother never taught us that it was important. Now I can see how it all makes sense. When I do not eat breakfast I tend to be hungry by lunch and I look to have a heavy meal that makes me feel bloated and sleepy. Somehow I know that it should not be that way. Now, I eat breakfast and I like to add some fruit or appetizers to eat during the day. For example, after I eat breakfast, I take fruit to work so that I can eat at around nine or ten just before lunch. This helps because when it is lunch time, you are not so hungry and you do not eat a big unhealthy meal. It helps you make a better choice for lunch; that is how I see it. Now my lunch is different, ever since I started eating breakfast, it makes me less hungry...
