Learn which food groups you should be eating plenty of, and find recipes that include them. Cutting out on carbs and fatty foods is essential, as is cutting down on sugar.

CUT OUT THE RUBBISH

If you have a snack cupboard, getting rid of it will be an excellent first step on your health food journey. Cutting out the bad stuff is half the battle. If you’re addicted to food you can grab on the go, get to grips with some of the healthier snacks on offer. If you can’t let go of crisps and chocolate just yet, take small steps. Instead of buying your usual crisps, opt for a healthier option. There are a variety of healthier, baked crisps on the market. If you need a chocolate fix every now and again, opt for something like a chocolate covered flapjack. While still not great, these options will help you make positive changes.
