My blog post today, as you can see, is about tricks to healthy eating. I find that most people tend to eat less healthily when it's nearly winter time. From psychology, I learnt about Seasonal Affective Disorder; this is a depression that occurs during late autumn and winter. I'm not going to get to the science behind it but eating healthily surely helps. If you suffer through this or know anyone who does or just simply want to start eating more healthy foods then stay and continue reading.

Healthy eating isn't all about salads and smoothies. There are many diets to choose from. Finding the right one for you may take trial and error. 

1. Eat breakfast every day
