How To Eat Right When Attending a Sports Function

Today, I went to a Jet Game with my boyfriend, Matt. Before the game, we had a small tailgate party and we barbecued some food prior to watching the game. This is the time to fill up and eat all the good and healthy food before entering the arena and getting trapped into buying the greasy food. To eat right at the tailgate, bring chicken or steak to grill, have roasted vegetables and some tortilla chips with salsa. Bringing fruit and water is also a good idea. Every time one goes to a sports game, it is tempting to buy sausage and peppers or that gross pizza or dried out pretzels. But, if you are prepared and eat a lot before the game, trust me you will not be tempted to buy the greasy foods. Eating this way will also make you feel better and enjoy the game more.
The game today was a lot of fun. This was the first game I had even been at and it was a great experience. My boyfriend and I were cheering and screaming the whole game and in the end the Jets won! We also had really close seats, 11 rows from the field.
So, tailgate right, eat right and you will enjoy the game and have a great time as I did!

"How To" Eat Healthy

Eating healthy is so important today to stay fit and feel good. It is very hard to eat the right foods today because of all the advertising for fast food, and how many people were brought up with eating whatever they want. As years progressed and research began, eating this way is not the right thing to do. If one eats this way it can lead to diabetes, obesity and others diseases of that sort. Fast food keeps expanding to get customers to buy and eat it. For example: many of them now have a dollar menu and children menu to get the kid's attention. Americans are so cheap that if they are hungry they will go to buy food for a dollar at a fast food restaurant. I know that some of these fast food places are starting to cook with better oil and bringing out salads and fruits. However, I think that people go for the french fries or onion rings either way.
To avoid this, it is better to eat at home. Eating organic food can help one feel great and get all the nutritional values they may need. Organic food is the same thing as non-organic except this kind of food is made with no preservatives, high-fructose corn syrup, food-coloring and it is all natural. Eating this way is the best way to stay healthy. When shopping in a supermarket, instead of buying the cereal with tons of food-coloring, you can go buy healthier cereal in the organic aisle that is made with fruit juices. Most supermarkets today do sell organic foods. Sometimes buying organic is a little more expensive, however once you start eating this way you will never go back to having fast food again and food containing unhealthy things again.
If you are thinking about loosing weight, don't starve but eat right and organic. If you eat right and exercise, you will see results and feel great. But, you must be careful when buying organic because buying an organic item does not mean that it contains no fat! This just means that there are no chemicals and preservatives. My family began eating healthier and organic a few years ago and by eating this way we all have more energy, feel better, never get sick and are in shape. Eating organic also does not mean that you cannot go out to eat. My family and I go out to eat all the time, we just choose the healthier choices, like grilled chicken instead of fried.
Whether you are eating at home, shopping in a supermarket or going out to eat, you can always find the right choices. You must have the will power and say to yourself that eating organic is the best thing for me.

"How To" Live a Healthy Life

Living today is a very challenging task to accomplish. One needs to have the knowledge on how to be successful and be healthy. Being healthy is the main way to survive in today's world. There are many ways to be healthy for example, eating the right way and getting the right amount of sleep. One also needs to be healthy socially, physically, educationally, and spirtually. There are four main ways on how to begin living a healthy life. These four ways are eating, excercising, taking vitamins and sleeping. Living a healthy life will definately bring along happiness and accomplishment. First, in order to live healthy one needs to eat right. This means throwing away the junk food and bringing out the healthy snacks. Instead of eating chips, cheese doodles and food with large amounts of sugar and food coloring; you can buy fruit cups, organic chips or chips with no food coloring and perservatives. The Human body needs to be in shape. America today is getting very obese because people aren't eating right and aren't excercising. So, the next step to live a healthy life would be to excercise constantly, for example: join a gym, talk a walk or jog in the park, take yoga or pilates classes and always be active. When one is active, you will maintain more energy to get through the day. Taking vitamins are another way on living healthy. Vitamins are a nutritional source or supplement that provides nutrition that one may not be getting from their every day meals. Sleep is the number one way on how to live healthy. Every average person needs 7 to 8 hours of sleep every night. This can prevent one from feeling ill, tired, and lazy. If one does not get enough sleep, he or she will not be able to funtion in work and school. This can prevent one from getting work done that is important for work and/or school. These four ways are essential on living a healthy life. If one eats right, excercises, takes vitamins and gets enough sleep, this person will advance in life and be on the right track to show other people how to live healthy.
