Recently I have slowly but surely started trying to improve
my diet and take up exercising with the overall aim of leading a healthier
lifestyle. Working in an office environment all week and spending a lot of time
on my laptop at home, I have found it has started to have an effect on my
lifestyle. Mainly low energy and a bad appetite. Armed with my ‘To Do’ list I
have started my journey to a healthier lifestyle.
Beginning with food, I have a collection of cook books that
have been my go to when prepping my week day lunches and dinners. I have
recently purchased Deliciously Ella, an inspiring story of Ella Woodward who
has transformed her life through her diet. This book in particular focuses on
only consuming food that is good for your body; natural plant based, dairy free
and gluten free food. I feel that everyone would benefit from incorporating
more natural food into their diet, and this is what I am aiming to do.
Admittedly this involves me eating a lot of food that I have never heard of,
never mind tasted.
I incorporated ingredients from a recipe in "Mary BerryCooks the Perfect - Step by Step” book and tips from Deliciously Ella to prep
my lunch for last week and to my surprise it was delicious. I used a lot of
ingredients that I have never tried before and I am looking forward to trying a
lot more.
