Healthy Diets - What does it look like for you?



A healthy diet is very important to ever single person. Our bodies need fuel for the day and the food we eat gives us this energy. I like to eat a variety of foods daily to make sure I get my nutrients for the day. I try to eat a food from each major food group every day. My favorite meal is steak, mashed potatoes, corn, and maybe a bun. This meal only covers grains, vegetables, and proteins but that is okay for just one meal. Maybe for lunch I would have a peanut butter bagel with an apple and a glass of milk. Just like that I have consumed nutrient dense food in every food category. What is your favorite meal? How do you feel about having well balanced meals?

    Eating a nutritious meal is a every important part of each day. the food that you eat gives you the energy that you need to do all the activities that you need to do for the day. I also try to use the MyPlate diet too when I eat, but that might work for you and me, but there are way more other diets out there that work for other people. I like the MyPlate diet and stick to that for I get all the nutrients that I need. The best part is that it isn't that hard to get all the parts of the MyPlate in a single day.

    I like to follow the MyPlate diet too. I try my best to balance each meal out with the five categories of foods. I like your tip on making up for any missed nutrients with the next meal you eat. It can be hard to always have all five food groups with each meal. It's just important to get them in at some point.

Welcome! I would like to welcome you to my blog! My name is Evan Lutz and I am a School Wellness major at Slippery Rock University. This is a blog where we will discuss healthy life styles such as stress management, sleeping, being active and other subjects. I would like to start this first blog post off with a question where we discuss what we think. I want to know, what do you think a healthy life would look like?  I personally view a healthy life as someone who is active regularly. I don't necessarily mean you work out vigorously every day. It can be as simple as taking time to walk for 30 minutes or go for a jog. I also think another important aspect of a healthy life is a healthy diet. Having a healthy diet on top of being physically active will lower your risk for so many diseases and make you feel better overall.  So, what do you think a healthy lifestyle looks like?

What is your favorite way to stay active?  In a world where it seems physical activity is being pushed to the side, we need to prioritize being active more often. Physical activity has so many benefits beyond just losing weight. It helps your heart, lungs, whole body, mood, and so much more. So my question today is this, do you have a specific way or favorite way you stay active throughout the week? I personally enjoy going to the gym during the week, snowboarding when I can, and playing softball during the summer months. There are many ways to be active, so let's talk about a few!
