While you’re figuring out which category you fall under,here is another brain teaser. Being a Foodie does not give you the room to eat unhealthy meals,or eat in an unhealthy manner,do you as a Foodie realise they are basic cautions to be taken as well as discipline to observe when it comes to how,what,and when you consume your meals.

Take a minute now my dear,now look at that belly are you proud of it?

Yes that’s exactly what i am talking about!your excess junks,and imbalance food intake,late night meals,heavy and high intake of carbohydrates,zero balanced diet and low intake of water is what is testifying in your stomach so oh! Eating is not only necessary but it is compulsory as well,nevertheless you have to eat at appropriate time and take appropriate meals and take enough water too,yes,stop eating without water. Fact has it that you take atleast 2 litres of water every day,and also a glass full before you retire to bed,all to aid digestion and cleansing of your tracts,water aids digestion and helps lessen the war and stress you go through when you use the toilet.

Take your breakfast,it is your first meal of the day make it count and don’t miss it,seeing that not everyone takes lunch more reason why breakfast is super important,wake up early enough to get yourself a worthy meal before the days hustle and tussle begins. Dinner should also be taken early enough,so it can digest easily and you can afford yourself a comfortable night and zero pot belly. Do you have any idea that late night meals are stress to your digestive system,it may lead to acid reflux and negatively affect blood sugar management, blood pressure,yes exactly,that Eba you are just turning by 12:58 am,drop it and take

fresh vegetables,smoothie,cereal with milk,fruits,oatmeal,popcorn,eggs,eat food with low fat but great source of protein, you have to be intentional with your food choices,this is very important, for example Eating late regularly especially meals with lots of calories, conditions your body to store the calories as fat, which leads to weight gain. This can also give you problems like indigestion and heartburn.

Try as much as possible to ensure that all you eat in a day has a combination of Carbohydrate,Protein,Fat and Oil,Vitamin,Minerals and Water.
