Well I need some advice on eating more healthy and reguarly. I'm only 14 but my mother isn't home at night (she works the night shift and McDonalds) and I am in charge of feeding myself. I will be honest I am a good cook to a point though I could still use guidance every now and then. I have the habit of not knowing what to cook so I will end up just eating watered down cream of chicken and egg noodles which I know is not good for me all the time. I like Salmon really well and eat in quite often but that gets tiring. Lately food has taken over my life. I'm always secretly wondering if I should have eaten that, what will I eat for dinner, I don't have anything in the house I need to go out and get something, and I really hate that. I'm not fat I'm normal for my height and I want to just learn to eat at certain times and just have healthy snacks inbetween instead of cookies for my snacks.
If any of you on here can think of some good well balanced meals please answer. Thanks in advance.
Oranges and apples are great to snack on. I would sit down and figure out ahead of time a few things that I would like to have on hand to eat for a week or even just several days. If you plan ahead, you don't settle for things. You can get a crust, tomato paste (with the herbs already in them, and throw all kinds of veggies on a pizza with some mozzarell. It is so good. A salad with some filling stuff like cut up carrrots, squash, cucumbers, mushrooms and a low fat dressing can be really tasty if you try something different like a balsamic dressing. Get a cookbook or two and pick some things out. Not every meal has to be a new recipe, but it will give you some ideas and you can start experimenting. You might also ask your mom to put some precooked stuff in the freezer for you.
