Healthy eating is a day-to-day endeavor. Before I started using Lifesum, I looked for healthy items but paid zero attention to nutritional breakdown. I wasn’t drinking enough water. I didn’t account for how exercise might change my caloric needs. The Lifesum food diary has become an actual mindfulness practice surrounding what goes into my body.
In this sense, the app has been the accountability I didn’t know I needed. But it’s also been a muse of sorts. Lifesum offers seven-day meal plans across a variety of lifestyles. I gravitated toward the “Clean Eating” plan and was thrilled by the recipes offered—a breakfast salad, salmon and coconut bowl, say no more! These recipes were flavor-forward but also deeply satiating. For example, the chia pudding features cardamom for flavor intrigue but also blends tofu for protein. Following this plan, I’ve felt light, energized, nourished—clean eating at its best.
And in case I get curious about other lifestyles, like fasting or sustainable eating? There are other plans easily available. (Not if, but when!)
