The Magnificent 7

Last week I had that aha day , the day I knew would come, the day I called tomorrow is now here. Yes folks it’s the day I have realised that my diet is not up to scratch (especially for an inspiring public health practitioner).  However today is not like any other day, after I watched my fav film with my sweetheart crush Denzel playing lead, The magnificent 7 became my lightbulb moment that triggered an idea for my much-needed lifestyle change. 

I have longed for a diet which would be easy and fun to do. I know that I am not the only one. So take a pen and take note of the diet I have named The Magnificent 7.  Firstly, choose 7 healthy food items and duly put each item on your to-do calendar , 1 for each day of the week with a reminder to consume during the day or at mealtimes depending on the item.  Each week can be a different item or just your favourite 7. This has worked great for me.So far as I have managed to increase my fruit and veg intake by 50%. Albeit according to The Guardian, this could take up to 66 days to eventually turn it in to a habit (only 60 days to go), but I can wait.

So with that in mind, I will feedback in three months, hopefully slimmer and healthier all thanks to my Magnificent 7. Why not join me.
