Eating HEALTHY

How can I be healthy and still enjoy food? That is a question that I ask myself all the time. 

Last week we went to the farmer's market to pick up veggies, fruit and poultry. I believe that fresh food, cooking everything yourself and exercising regularly are my key to staying fit and healthy. Unfortunately after having our daughter Heidi it took me years to get back into shape. My weight started to drop only when I began eating a very healthy diet high in veggies and protein, drinking lots of water and last but definitely not least working out 3 - 4 times a week. 

Of course I treat myself like here at the market where we had waffles and panini's for lunch. I also believe that cutting out all sugars and sweets are unhealthy because of the cravings that you are building up. Here are a few of my tips: Eat dark chocolate 70% instead of milk chocolate, eat fruits when you feel the urge for sweets, a spoonful of peanut butter works wonders as well as a cup of tea or a glass of water. 

But still enjoy the good things in life!
