Valentine's Day is finally here and we're sure you've got some fun activities planned out for you and your partner. And we're also sure that you've definitely got chocolates and other sweet treats for your partner. But, while Valentine's Day is all about expressing your love for each other, don't you agree that it should include ensuring that your partner stays healthy as well? Now, we're not saying that you give up on treats entirely; you can eat whatever you want but also make sure that you balance your meals.
Nutritionist Ritika Samaddar says “What is interesting about eating healthy is that it does not take much. In fact, you can eat all the foods you enjoy — but the key is to do it in smaller quantities and ensure that you are consuming a balanced meal that includes a healthy fare of fruits, vegetables, and healthy snacks such as almonds.”
Fitness expert Madhuri Ruia, says, “Valentine’s day is a perfect opportunity for people to make positive lifestyle alterations as a commitment to one another, for a healthier and happier life together. A combination of a healthy diet and a good workout is like a dream team. Incorporating small changes in your life like swapping a less nutritious snack for a handful of almonds every day and working out regularly will help you maintain a healthy life. You can also whip up some flavoured almonds to munch on before and after your workout or even to curb hunger pangs between meals.”
What you could also do is pick out a workout regime for your partner and yourself. When you have someone to workout with, neither will you feel bored nor will you want to quit because you wouldn't want to risk your partner quitting their workout session because of you. This will help both of you stay fit and healthy.
