; life is but yummy

So I just had a delicious breakfast and I'm not gonna lie, I'm feeling really good this morning. I've been trying to go back to the healthy lifestyle I had last year and I just realised that I'm actually on the right track. I have been more active lately and eating healthy for a whole week, I know it might not seem like a huge deal, but for me it is, I was so into junk food that I was not only gaining weight but also feeling trashy. 

Yesterday, I found a recipe to make Chia seeds pancakes so I decided to prepare some for breakfast, they turned out DELICIOUS! I enjoyed so much every bite... That reminded me that it is possible to enjoy life and be happy with a helthy lifestyle. I'm not saying I'm gonna become a radical vegan or something like that, because there are still some - not so healthy - foods that I actually love, like cheesecake, chocolate or pizza, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna eat that kind of foods everyday, I realised that I can actually make them a casual treat like once a week. I think it's important to not forget that eating must also be a pleasure, but when it comes to - not so healthy - foods, we must also do it with measure.

I think the most important thing about healthy eating is to figure out what fits you best. I can't imagine my life in a vegan lifestyle, and it's not that I love meat, but I like eggs, honey, yogurt and other animal products. Some people may not be willing to ditch coffee, or bread, but the thing is to find your own balance and make sure it makes you happy.
