5 ways your “healthy” habits might be sabotaging your energy
Let’s be real.
You’re trying. You really are. But that smoothie, salad, or protein bar?
Might be doing less than you think… or worse, backfiring. 💣
Here’s where most people go sideways with food:
1️⃣ You Skip Meals... Then Binge Later
“I just wasn’t hungry.”
Sure… until 9 PM hits and you become a fridge raccoon.
Undereating all day ≠ balance. It’s a delayed crash. 🦝🍕
2️⃣ You’re Living Off Carbs Alone
Carbs aren’t the villain — but if there’s no protein or fat in the mix, you're just spiking and crashing like a toddler on Kool-Aid. 🍭📉
3️⃣ Your “Healthy” Snacks Are Candy in Disguise
Granola bars. Fruit juice. Yogurt “drinks.”
If it’s got a cartoon on the label and 18g of sugar, it’s not helping. 😬
4️⃣ You Don’t Know Your Protein Gaps
Most people think they’re getting enough.
Most people are wrong. You’re not gonna build or recover off a single egg. 🍳🫠
5️⃣ You’re Eating Emotion, Not Fuel
This one hurts. But if food is your therapist, your energy will stay all over the place.
It’s not just what you eat. It’s why you eat. 🧠🍩
🧠 What Now?
No shame. Just better tools.
Try this instead:
- 🍳 Add a protein to every meal
- 🌈 Make your plate look like a color wheel
- 🧊 Check if you’re actually hungry — or just overstimulated
