Such small things will let you achieve your daily goal of completing 10,000 steps in a day.
- Protein:
Another best friend you need to say yes to become healthier is proteins. The fact is that proteins leave you feeling fuller and more satisfied post heir consumption when compared to many other nutrients.
As a result of this, you will not end up over-indulging in your meals. Even if you are deciding to indulge in a snack, make sure that the snacks also contain protein in them.

Carbs are truly not the enemy, but we need to make sure that we know the right amount that needs to be consumed and when it needs to be consumed. Timing and quantity are everything in this aspect.
