Eating Healthy Plus Healthy Sites!

Mmmm...!

                               
                            

                I am doing weekly posts now that school is back on. Anyway, we all have heard that beauty is in the inside. Well then it is important to put good things inside our body, and eating healthy  is  the key. Having sickle cell it is important for me to eat fresh foods to help my body produce healthy blood cells. However, you don't have to have an illness, or be overweight to start eating healthier. When I eat healthy I notice that I have a better attitude, I am more alert and happy about going on with my day.

                    Healthy is NOT eating junk food.
                
                    Healthy is NOT overeating.

                    Healthy is NOT under-eating.

                    Healthy is NOT fad dieting.

             Healthy is eating fresh produce, more cooking instead of buying, eating less of packaged foods. Also eating healthy is not suppose to be stressful,yes,  it is easier to go to McDonalds and order a Big Mac but if you went home and made some rice and beans doused with Tilapia fish and some vegetables on the side  or something that would be more satisfying and make you feel less sluggish at the end of the day.

     Anyway, this info is not new to anyone. Everyone knows you have to eat healthy because when you do it shows, from physical traits like hair, and skin to confidence as well.You don't have to become a vegan, or exercise every single minute of the day, just start with a few vegetables a day and go from there. I don't really go on a lot of  healthy sites honestly, but here is the top two that win first place in my heart!

Heyfranhey.com- Franchesca is the real deal when it comes to being healthy. Her website is full of How-to's on healthy dishes, exercising, and natural beauty remedies. However, she does show more of a  vegan-strict diet when giving out recipes which, trust me, isn't always easy to follow. Nevertheless, when reading her blog you get a sense that she really wants to help you, as she was in a similar state of being unhealthy and curing her kidney dialysis with eating more organic foods.

Greatist.com- This site is great for when you are starving from a disastrously long day and you find yourself screaming at the fridge for betraying you. This site makes you apologize to that fridge, so you can make some easy but satisfying healthy meals. The site also provides meat, vegetarian, and vegan meals to satisfy your appetite. It also has fitness tutorials that range from cardio to yoga!
