What is Healthy?

Healthy is eating 2000 calories a day.

Healthy is not really knowing how many calories you’ve eaten, but trusting your body to tell you when it needs more or less through hunger signals.

Healthy is working out for 30 minutes 5 days a week.

Healthy is having days where you feel like you haven’t stopped moving - simply through cleaning or shopping or dancing. Healthy is also laying around doing nothing for an entire day because you’re tired and exercise is boring. Healthy can be visiting a gym once or twice a week, or swimming, or running - BUT it doesn’t matter to you if you skip a session because there are more important things in your life.

Healthy is 80% “good” food and 20% “bad” food.

Healthy is eating what you want, when you want. Healthy is being able to eat some of the chocolate and then put the rest away for tomorrow. Equally, healthy can be eating the whole damn thing just because it tastes good, and then not feeling guilty afterwards because you can acknowledge that one bar of chocolate will make no difference in to the bigger picture of your life.

Healthy is getting your 5 a day.

Healthy is eating a wide range of food, including fruit and veg, sometimes 5, sometimes 3, sometimes 7. 

Healthy is keeping an eye on what you eat and exercising enough.

Healthy is having more important things to focus on, and as long as you can run for a bus and your clothes fit, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Healthy is enjoying food and having lazy days. Healthy is also running for the sheer joy of it or having days where you naturally eat more or less and not even noticing. 

Healthy is natural. It just happens if you relax.
