Eating healthy isn’t about cutting out your favorite foods—it’s about finding balance. With a few simple adjustments, you can fill your plate with nourishing foods that boost your energy and still align with your lifestyle. Even on a budget or a busy schedule, eating well can be easier than you might think.

Tracking your meals—whether in an app or a simple notebook—helps you become more aware of your habits and gives you a sense of control over your choices.

People may be even more likely to maintain goals with social support.
