Lets be honest, we all have a million excuses to not start eating healthy. A team of experts has has made a list of the top excuses used by people, and how to overcome them.
Many people claim that they dont have the time to exercise or prepare nutrtious meals. Save time on meal preparation without compromising nutrition by purchasing convenient items such as rotisserie chicken, frozen fruits and vegetables, precut produce, and instant brown rice.
Another top excuse is that people calaim they don’t have gym access. Explore options at often-overlooked park districts and inexpensive community centers such as the YMCA, says Blakely. Exercising doesn’t have to cost money. Consider power-walking around your neighborhood, while pumping your arms, at a pace that gets you slightly out of breath.
People also claim that healthy food is too expensive. People have misconceptions about the price of wholesome foods, says Cassetty. Fill your fridge and pantry with produce (fresh or frozen), whole grains, and lean proteins such as eggs, beans, and canned fish. These picks will satisfy your hunger better than fast food or frozen meals.
