I like to advocate for the 80/20 rule – eating healthy 80% of the time and adding in those delicious treats only 20%. Focus on trying to increase the healthy foods initially rather than focusing on what you shouldn’t be eating and that feeling of deprivation. Most people need to increase their vegetable and fruit intake so focusing on that and getting the colour of the rainbow each day. This will increase nutrients in diet, improve satiety, and decrease intake of unhealthy foods. Try adding more veggies into sauces, more salads, veggie frittata, berries in oatmeal, etc.
