Take a sneak peak at one of our delicious recipes from our 30-Day Transformation Program:
It is a good idea to eat three meals and no more than two snacks throughout the day. A snack in the morning and one in the afternoon can keep your blood sugar level balanced, ensuring you have sustained energy throughout the day. Snacks can often be seen as a treat and therefore become unhealthy. It is very important to eat healthy snacks and only eat them if you are genuinely hungry. It is also important to combine carbohydrate and protein in your snacks.
