HOW TO SIMPLIFY HEALTHY EATING| Start with 3 simple steps!

I've stepped out of the kitchen to chat about "healthy eating." Here are 3 simple steps that help me to simplify healthy eating! I'd love to hear your thoughts and what has helped you. XO - Dani

I have lost my love of cooking healthy food since I began caring for my mother full time, around 4 years ago. She is moving into a nursing home next week and my first plan of action is to look after ME again! I feel like I’m starting from scratch again and my husband refuses to eat anything even remotely healthy. I need some quick healthy meals that I can throw together for myself that will get me back to a decent level of health xx

Im living proof of this healthy balance. Because I'm not on medication at 61, is because, I look at food as my medication. Sure to eat all the colors, create a beautiful plate of God's nutrition, and once in awhile enjoy the sweets he also wants us to enjoy. Everything said in this video is common sense. It truly is not complicated at all ~

One simple idea that has helped me eat healthier, is when I shop at the grocery store is to get my items from the outer walls and areas as the aisles in the middle are mostly processed food choices.

I started eating more fresh veggies and fruits with necessary added proteins and it is working well. I continue to struggle with my addiction to processed sugar foods and diet pop, but I am making progress every day. Your videos inspire and educate me. Your simple and basic recipes also help tremendously.

Love how you focus on the foods you can add in, not take away!!

Hey Dani, GREAT PRESENTATION!! I'm a vegan and love what I eat and how good I feel!! 🎉 Very well thought out for people who would like to transition into eating a little healthier!! One step at a time is exactly how my evolution took place,!! Thanks and health to you and all viewers🎉😊❤

Dani, I recently dealt with my eating disorder. I couldn’t stop eating snacks like Smart popcorn, Hersheys kisses, etc. When I shopped for groceries, I always threw a snack in my cart and I would tell myself it was okay to do so because I eat mostly healthy\ish home cooked meals, so what’s the harm. Then, I realized I couldn’t stop snacking. One day, after a stressful incident, I immediately went to my kitchen to grab a snack. I was tired at failing. I knew if I ate the snack, I would only feel worse. I had tried so many different methods to control my eating habits. As I was about to eat, I asked myself, “Wait, why are you eating?” I had to pause and I truly had to think about why I was eating. Do you want to know what came out of my mouth, I said, “I just want to feel better.” It was my ‘ahh moment”. I didn’t realize that I was eating to feel better. I cried, and I felt compassion for myself. I didn’t understand why I was harming myself. I just needed to know why I had a food addiction. I am still working on finding ways to protect myself from stress and anxiety. Because I have a teen son who enjoys an occasional snack, I still have to keep them in the house. But I still enjoy an occasional fun food, and when I feel the temptation to eat the wrong food, I grab an apple or banana. As a recovering addict, I need to do that to keep me away from stumbling. Thank you for everything you do. 😊

I have a history of disordered eating and am focusing on fresh fruits and veggies, lean protein, and whole grains . I've stopped tracking food for now, which seems to help my mindset. Understanding, of course, everyone's needs and relationship with food is different. Thanks for your work and content; I find the straightforward approach very helpful.

I love your simple approach to healthy eating. think I need to watch this video every morning to remind myself how easy healthy eating can be!

A great segment! What works for me is the 80-20 rule. Eat healthy 80% of the time and my favorites 20%. I find it best to have half of my plate with veggies along with a palm full of protein but as you stated, this depends upon an individual's activity level and requires adjustment.

Trying to break my diet mentality is taking me much time to work out but I know I will conquer this eventually❤

Have always enjoyed everything about your Clean and Delicious channel. I’ll be 60 this year and have had love/hate relationship with my food my entire adult life. Thank you for explaining in a simplified manner, it really makes sense and I have definitely been a food labeler, Good food/ Bad food. The minute I tell myself I can’t have something, the more wicked my cravings seem to get!

I really like you, you give great advice, simple to understand and great tweaks. You’re always enjoyable and pleasant to watch. Thank you.

Awesome video! Short, easy to absorb and understand! Your healthy recipes have helped me realize how much I enjoy fruits and veggies and how to add more to my daily intake. I feel so much better.
