Healthy Eating Secrets

flowergirl asked:


I am a high school student stuck in an unhealthy family trying to eat a healthy whole balanced diet. I hate white flour and sugar but that is the only thing that my family buys. Every time they buy it I tell them that I don’t use it and ask them to buy pure cane sugar or whole-wheat flour. Every time I try to tell them the benefits of a healthy wholesome diet, they get all pissed off and make me feel stupid. I want to quit eating factory bread and make homemade WHOLE WHEAT bread. I am also a vegan and my dad is a dairy farmer. They always eat and drink things like soda, chips, and desserts. I want to cut off using peanut butter that has sugar and hydrogenated oils but that’s all that they buy. How can I convince my family to eat healthy? I am trying to get a job to buy my own food but the economy sucks here and there are no jobs. Also whenever my family buys fruits and vegetables I eat them all and they get angry with me.

I’m 6′0″, weighing in at around 190 lbs. I’d like to shed off a couple of more pounds to look thinner, and I’m concerned that if I don’t, then my health will be affected. I’m not fat, but I’m just a little chubby and I’d like to lose that weight. I’ve decided to go on a healthy diet (I’ve stopped drinking sodas), but I don’t know any good healthy foods or eating habits. What are some good healthy snacks that I could munch on that wouldn’t affect my weight, and what are some good ways that I could shed off these extra pounds?

I am now an adult, and am fully aware of the importance of healthy eating habits and exercise, yet I can’t seem to do either. I know I need to take charge and make better decisions, so how can I get that upbringing out of the back of my conscious and start being healthier? My whole family is overweight, except for myself and my sister, but we both struggle to stay at healthy weights. What can I do?
I HAVE been healthy before, but this past year I gained 20 lbs and quit eating well. I just need someone to kick me in the butt and get me going!

I am a freshman my second semester in college. I would like to apply for scholarships in which I would need to write an essay on healthy eating/nutrition (which I am very passionate about). I just can’t find any! Can you help?

And I mean healthy eating not organic sweets and sugar, but 8-9 fruits/veggies a day reasonable calorie intake, etc. Does the lack of preservatives really make a difference on metabolic rate? If so how much?

I’m a recovering bulimic. Lately I’ve eaten nothing but junk food. Seriously, all I eat is candy and junk. Then I drink a ton of diet soda and throw it up so I’m not gaining weight.

I used to be so healthy! How can I get back to healthy eating and eliminate the junk? I don’t know what to do, I just crave sweets so badly.

Thanks.
I’m 5′4 and I weigh between 110 and 115. I want to weigh 105.
