As a current graduate student, making sure I eat right is often difficult to prioritize in my day-to-day routine. Considering I have a cupboard full of snacks and an empty vegetable/fruit drawer in the fridge, I thought it would be beneficial to me to limit my snacking and incorporate fruits and vegetables in my daily diet. I've also realized after a recent trip to the grocery store that I usually purchase the same items: frozen foods, unhealthy granola bars and a variety of chips and snacking items. In order to improve my nutritional habits, I have decided to create a nutritional goal for myself that I will try to achieve during this academic semester. My overall goal is to eliminate the unhealthy snacks I eat from my diet (i.e. chips, cookies, etc.) and incorporate at least 4-6 servings of fruits and vegetables per day.
Each week I will be providing an update of my successes and possible missteps (hopefully there won't be many of those). In order to help myself along the way, I will commit to creating a list of healthy foods to buy when I visit the grocery store so that I don't purchase and consume unhealthy snacks. I will also look into recipes in which I can find versatile ways to incorporate fruits and veggies into my diet. Wish me luck on my journey to creating a healthier and more nutritious version of myself!!
