Fit and Happy
I am 20 years old, 5'7", and I live in Canada. This blog is following my journey to a fit and happy me. With proper eating and exercise, I am on my way to finding a healthier version of myself. I hope you can be encouraged!
I am all about doing this the healthy way. I do not support eating disorders, but if you are struggling with one you can definitely talk to me about it. I have also struggled with, and still take medication for clinical depression, so you can talk to me about that as well. I would love to help you with anything you are dealing with, so feel free to drop by my ask box!

If I have a relationship with food where I can’t have it in the house, then I have to look at what’s really going on in my life. ‘Cause it has nothing to do with the food. Nothing. It’s not just what you’re eating, it’s also what’s eating you.Kris Carr

Being healthy is so fundamentally simple it’s ridiculous we’ve gotten this far off track.
JUST EAT FOOD.
NOT FOOD-LIKE PRODUCTS.
If your great-great-great grandma wouldn’t recognize it, don’t even put it in your shopping cart.
The food industry is exactly that - an industry, just like the clothing industry, publishing industry, and electronics industry. They need to sell and will put anything on a label to make their product appeal to you. Keep this in mind when you are grocery shopping and think twice about everything!

The only 3 nutrients that provide your body with energy are: Carbohydrates, Fats, and Proteins. Energy is the body’s most basic need, and is used for everything your body does.
The energy contained in a carbohydrate, fat, or protein is measured in kilocalories, commonly shortened to “calories”. The calories is a measure of energy available to the body.
The energy values of the 3 calorie-providing nutrients are as follows:
- 1 gram of carbohydrate = 4 calories
- 1 gram of protein = 4 calories
- 1 gram of fat = 9 calories

I am looking to make a list of things to look for/avoid when I go grocery shopping, and I need your help! You know, what types of fats are “good fats” and what ones to avoid, tricks to reading labels and “nutritional lingo”. Kind of like a grocery shopping cheat-sheet.
I know some of you are really wise when it comes to these things, and I would love your help!
If you guys want me to post what I come up with so you can use it too, I would be more than happy!
Thanks guys!

Need more convincing that negative calorie foods don’t exist? Have some links!
THANK YOU! I’m so sick of people talking about “negative calorie food”. Stop worrying so much, stop looking for easy ways out. Eat to take care of your body!
