You do not need a perfect diet. You need a few simple habits you can keep.
Add color first
Put a vegetable or fruit on the plate before anything else. Aim for something green, something bright.
Add protein
Eggs, chicken, fish, beans, or yogurt. Protein keeps you full and steady.
Keep it simple
Healthy does not mean fancy. A plain salad with a good topping beats a complicated plan you never follow.
Drink water
A glass with each meal is an easy start.
Enjoy it
Eat slowly. Sit down. Talk with someone. Food is meant to be enjoyed, not feared.
If you have health needs, check with your doctor or a dietitian. Start with one change this week and build from there.
