HEALTHY YOU
#Danielsdiet
I guess, you would be wondering what that headline is about. Well! i was out visiting a good friend and we were chatting about her official leave coming up and plans for traveling, when she got a ping on blackberry from a colleague at work who was already on vacation and i think she wrote:"I am enjoying myself and eating like a big girl everyday"
She then sent a a picture of her food.Check this out:
This had a lot of cholesterol, which is not easily burnt of with exercise. |
she even adds fried sausages to this basic meal. But lets be truthful the average Nigerian is so brainwashed that we are killing ourselves with a lot of quick junk. Don't get me wrong, i am not claiming to be a saint because I am as guilty as everyone else. I had to renew my mind on the definition of enjoyment and a healthy me.
Below picture is the every day quick fix meal for most spinsters or bachelors in Lagos with a chilled bottle of Coke.
I dare you to deny this food! in pidgin "Bros, even you don chop am!"
If you have any argument read the end of this article first, Abeg! then send your comments. I believe that to eat "amala and ewedor" everyday is a lot healthier. This meal in the above picture should be once in a week thing.
Healthy breakfast. Very affordable and not too time consuming. |
My dream romantic breakfast. |
if you can recall the first "healthy you" article i wrote on 19 of April, 2015. I had a rude awaking that i was an addicted junkie.In this, i mean, i couldn't easily make the right food /nutritional decision/choices everyday. This is not just me but almost every other Lagosian or Nigerian for that matter.
Challenge is for a week:
* You need to drink on a daily basis: 2 litres of water minimum
* Take fruits twice a day
* Eat freshly made salad at least twice a week
* No Coke, 7Up or Beer (no carbonated drinks nor wine, spirits)
*No cakes , fried plantain (Dodo)nor akara
* Take fermented Drinks at least once; Yorgurt, Ogi, Kunu
*Your budget is N3500( that is in naira) for a week only.
Then take a picture of yourself before and after a week of this diet. Lets us have your comments or observations. We need to know or i need to know, if it was really a challenge or easy breezy!
