ATTENTION, ATTENTION! What do dietitians eat?
After many requests for meal plans this week and not enough time in my life to attend to these requests I decided to document my 24-hour intake daily for a week and post it for everyone to view!
Disclaimer: my diet is anything but perfect, I have treats too much at night and sometimes I forget to eat meals due to the hectic schedule at work but I do for the most part focus on balance, moderation, clean eating, and plant-based meals. I hope giving you a glimpse into my life will help you feel motivated to eat healthier but also allow yourself to enjoy your food (and cheat every now and then). A successful diet is one that doesn’t restrict but focuses on the addition of nutrient-rich foods that promote health benefits. If a dietitian allows herself to slip up every now and then, so can you! Recipes that I used are listed below the food log! Stay-tuned for my next day of food journaling tomorrow!
