3 Good Reasons to Skip the Diet

By Genevieve Cunningham

Diet. Does this word make you shudder? Join the club! No one likes the word diet; it sounds like a dirty word of sorts. But diet is really important for your overall health and well-being. You are what you eat, and this statement couldn't be any more true. But let's be real: Dieting is hard. It's tedious and mentally stressful. Luckily, changing your diet isn't the only route to better health. If you are ready to improve your health but you're not ready to attack your diet just yet, take a look at these three reasons why you don't even have to worry about it right now.

Because It's More About Lifestyle

A healthy diet isn't about changing your foods for a week or a month and then going back to old habits. It's about living a life that is conducive to healthy eating. It's about changing your foods for good! If you really want to make changes in your life, skip the diet and go for long-term healthy eating. This is the only way to really change your health from the inside out and make it part of who you are permanently. 

Because You Can Do Other Things First

If diet isn't your strong suit, it's OK to make other healthy living changes first. Focus on your exercise or your sleep routine. Focus on your morning routine. Focus on any other aspect of your health besides your diet. As you get more comfortable with making changes, you can move toward making diet changes that will actually last. 

Because Small Changes Make a Big Difference

Here's the thing about changing your health: Small changes make a huge impact. If you're not ready to change your diet, just change one small thing. Change your drinking habits from soda to water. Change your breakfast from Pop-Tarts to toast. These small changes really add up over time, and eventually, you'll wake up with an entirely new diet in front of you and better health too. 

Diet is important. There's absolutely no denying the importance of maintaining a good diet. But it's not worth losing your sanity or stressing you out. Take your time and make changes when you're ready. With enough time and patience and consistency, you can create a healthier body and lifestyle that sticks with you for years to come.
