Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,
Thought I'd miss my daily quota of healthy lifestyle tip giving? Well, I'm happy to have proven you wrong. I just went camping this weekend with Kelby and two amazing friends of mine. We ventured to Wegman's to purchase our food. Granted, I give myself lots of slack when camping simply because it's hard to preserve healthy food in the wilderness and it's camping, a retreat from the routine; it's illogical but i do it. However, I do what I can when given the option of this junk food over that junk food as I encourage you to do as well. The best way to do that is when you're at the grocery store.
Before you even consider putting something in your mouth, you have to consider buying it first. When given the choice between brands, be sure to check the ingredients. You don't need high fructose corn syrup in your tummy. It is necessary to be conscious of what's going inside your body. As a college student, I know that money can be tight. However, you have to make the sacrifice if you really want to be healthier. It's unfortunate that the healthier option is often more expensive but, it's worth it for yourself to go for it.
So, be choosy. If it says "natural," make sure you read the ingredients to confirm how natural it really is. Products that use canola oil or olive oil instead of butter or have a balance of the two often taste really good so you don't need to worry about a lack of flavor.
In health,
Lauren
