Which one would you pick?#10240; #10240; Occasionally I#8217;m the left hand, but mostly I#8217;m the right hand. (I know, shocking. A person who considers themselves into health and fitness eats sweets - and is openly talking about it on social media.) #127773;#127773;#127773;#10240; #10240; You see, although I#8217;m fully aware that a handful of almonds contains lots of wonderful nutrients that would keep me fuller for longer, some days (no matter whether I#8217;m looking to gain, maintain or lose weight) I#8217;ll choose to eat sweets or a chocolate bar as a snack #128170;#10240; #10240; Why? Because when the majority of my diet has consisted of well-balanced food that#8217;s full of micronutrients, I have no issue eating something thats less so just because I love the taste of it. This is just a personal choice. Cutting out things I love isn#8217;t realistic for me so I always squeeze something sweet into my days (all whilst still sticking to my calorie/macro/micro targets.)#10240; #10240; Many would choose the almonds for the nutritional value or the flavour - which is totally fine. Many would choose the almonds because even though they'd prefer Fruit Pastels, almonds would make them feel more #8216;on track#8217; mentally - which again, is totally fine #128149;#10240; #10240; I#8217;m not glorifying sweets, or almonds for that matter. I#8217;m glorifying knowing what#8217;s in the food you#8217;re eating, and make educated decisions based on your own values. And I value food that#8217;s good for my body and good for my soul.#10240; #10240; #8216;Healthy' to me is exactly what I make it. And Fruit Pastels (in moderation) make me happy which I believe contributes largely to my overall health #128588;#10240; #10240; #theFFF #theFFFeed @thefffeed LUCY MOUNTAIN (@thefashionfitnessfoodie) által megosztott bejegyzés, 2017.

Ezeket láttad már?

Lucy Mountain fitneszblogger meg szeretné változtatni azt, ahogy az emberek a kalóriaszámlálásról vélekednek. Véleménye szerint nagyon sokan ugyanabba a hibába esnek, nem tudják, valójában mennyi kalóriát tartalmaz az általuk fogyasztott élelmiszer.

A lány összehasonlítja az egészséges nasikat a gyorskajákkal és rámutat arra, hogy kis mennyiségben bármit ehetünk, viszont, ha túlzásba esünk, akkor a legegészségesebb étellel is mellélőhetünk.

Ezt olvastad már? Ezzel a módszerre te is azonnal #fitgirl lehetsz az Instagramon!

Nézd meg az összehasonlító fotókat és garantáltan máshogy nézel ezentúl ezekre az élelmiszerekre!

Anything. In general #127773; So whenever I'm trying to get a little bit leaner, I love low calorie/high volume snacks. They make me feel like I'm eating more - like picking a bowl of fresh strawberries as opposed to a snack bag of dried strawberries #128170;#10240; #10240; People often presume dried fruit has the same macro/micro nutrient value as fresh fruit and don't really take the huge difference in volume into account. Being aware of these factors could really help improve your portion control when eating either of these type of foods - and get you to your goal quicker #128149;#10240; #10240; Don't get me wrong; dried fruit is waaaay easier to eat when you're on the go (ain't nobody got time to whip out a punnet of strawberries lol). So they could be a good option if convenience is the priority. But when fatloss is the goal, 300g of fresh strawberries is likely to be more satiating.#10240; #10240; Anyway I personally like my strawberries dowsed in gelatin with the label 'Haribo' on it.#10240; #10240; #theFFF #theFFFeed @thefffeed LUCY MOUNTAIN (@thefashionfitnessfoodie) által megosztott bejegyzés, 2017.

And although calories aren#8217;t the sole indicator of #8216;healthy#8217;, we just presume it has lower calories. So which one is best for weight-loss?#10240; #10240; In most cases, Dark chocolate has less sugar, more fiber and more iron than milk. It#8217;s basically more nutritious than milk chocolate.#10240; #10240; Regardless, I will always go for milk for two reasons:#10240; #10240; 1. I think Dark chocolate tastes like garden leaves.#10240; #10240; 2. Chocolate isn#8217;t something I#8217;ll seek out when I#8217;m looking to pack in those vitamins and minerals - especially in a diet that already consists of adequate fruit, vegetables and micronutrient-dense food #129367; I enjoy chocolate for it#8217;s taste, not it#8217;s nutritional value. My diet is inclusive of it always - no matter what my goal is at the time #128170;#10240; #10240; For those of who genuinely love dark chocolate, keep doing you #128149;. However if you PREFER the taste of milk, but force yourself to eat dark because you've read it#8217;s 'healthier', just have the milk chocolate and enjoy it #128170; In terms of weight-loss from a calorie perspective, it#8217;s actually more beneficial and will raise happiness levels by 938% (unproven stat.)#10240; #10240; Don#8217;t eat things you don#8217;t enjoy for the sake of it. Personal enjoyment is #8216;healthy#8217; in my eyes #128129;#127996; Which side are you guys?!#10240; #10240; #theFFF #theFFFeed @thefffeed LUCY MOUNTAIN (@thefashionfitnessfoodie) által megosztott bejegyzés, 2017.

The bowl on the left are salt and vinegar, the bowl on the right are mixed root vegetable.#10240; #10240; Although the difference in calories is pretty minuscule, you#8217;d expect the vegetable crisps to be considerably less calories right? This is just another little reminder that often there#8217;s not much difference between the product marketed as the #8216;healthy alternative#8217; and the real thing. So go for the thing you actually WANT to eat #128588;#10240; #10240; Although there are many different aspects that describe #8216;healthy#8217; (yes - it IS subjective), such as salt content, micro-nutrient value and how that food makes them feel, calories play a fundamental part in weight management. This post isn#8217;t to say 'TRACK EVERYTHANG, TRACK THAT DAMN CUCUMBER#8217;, it#8217;s more about looking at your diet within the context of a whole day - and eating the damn salt and vinegar crisps if that#8217;s want you actually want.#10240; #10240; I want this and all my comparison posts to give encourage freedom with your food choices, not restriction. When 80% of my diet within a day is full of adequate micros and macros, i will ALWAYS eat food I love purely for taste. Because life.
