VegetablesVegetables provide our bodies with all-natural vitamins and minerals
Unlike the vitamin supplements that many people use to justify their lack of vegetables in their daily routine
Vegetables contain necessary fibers that fuel a strong bodyVegetables take the place of “those snacks”
You know, the snacks with no nutritional value, with high amounts of trans fat, and a ridiculous salt content
Instead of eating a whole bags of potato chips, why not eat carrots and hummus?
By substituting your junk food cravings for vegetables, you eliminate empty calories
Caloric intake that provides no nutritional value)www.HeyTomMalone.com
Protein (Not the Powder)Does protein come from a carton? No. Protein comes from eating
natural foods, like:Meats, beans, dairy, and fish
Protein builds muscleThe more lean protein you eat, the more lean muscle you’ll buildThe more lean muscle you have, the more fat you’ll burn
You don’t need to spend hundreds of dollars on the chalky protein powder and visit the gym every day for two hours
That sounds like a lot of workEating lean meats, drinking a small amount of milk, and eating beans will
provide your body with the proper balance of protein that it needs to regenerate muscle

Water (Not Flavored)The human body is literally made of water, so why do we consistently
fuel it with high fructose corn syrup, sugar, and colored dye?By drinking water, you’ll feel hydratedWhen you’re walking around in the heat or exercising after work, you’ll
feel betterYou can run longer, work harder, and think faster by fueling your body
with water rather than sodaSugary drinks may spark your mind for a while, but the sugar crash
brings you down lower than you were before you drank itThose water substitutes don’t count as water, either
The water that flows from mountain streams contain no sugar, colored dye, or anything else that’s made in a laboratory
Water is pure and it should taste that way www.HeyTomMalone.com
FruitsOur craving for sugar that has been so ingrained in our bodies
through the past five centuries that we need to address it somehowThe answer comes in the form of fruit, which contains natural, simple
sugars that fuel our bodies with energy without creating the devastating sugar crash that plagues our 2:00 p.m. work/school day
With natural sugary treats that grow from trees, we don’t need to eat our feeling with candy and sweet, baked goods
Fruits give our bodies energy to power through our day, while providing us with necessary vitamins and minerals that fuel our bodies’ strengths
Fruits give our bodies energyWith energy, we are able to express our lively personalities that draw the
attention of others in a positive mannerwww.HeyTomMalone.com
SnacksSnacks have the potential to kill any healthy eating regimentOr, snacks can add to your confident demeanor by encouraging self-
controlOn the negative side, snacks can fill your body with fabricated sugar,
which promote sugar crashes, drops in energy levels, and weight gain
On an optimistic note, snacks have the ability to brighten your mood, promote muscle building and fat loss, and promote natural body processes
What to do in today’s society of high-profile advertisements for sugary foods?
The key is making snacks yourselfUtilize fruits, vegetables, and nuts to fuel your snack fury
If a snack is natural, it will promote healthy nutrition

What to AvoidCertain foods can lead to lower confidence levels (Mostly unnatural
foods)What foods, you ask? All the ones that taste too good to be true
First, avoid anything with high fructose corn syrupThis ingredient provides no nutritional value and adds empty calories that
enhance weight gainSecond, avoid unnecessary sugar
Snacks with ridiculous amounts of sugar spike energy levels for a limited timeframe, and then drops energy levels to devastating depths
Without a sustained high energy level, confidence dropsThird, avoid gluten when possible
Mst wheat is genetically modified, which confuses the body’s processeswww.HeyTomMalone.com
Make It A HabitIn order to foster a confident lifestyle, nutritious eating must happen
regularlyOver time, the body will recognize the benefits of constant nutritionOver time, the body will shred unnecessary fat (yes, some fat is
necessary)Over time, the body will strengthen and lengthen muscles, and clear the
mindThe general mantra is everything in moderation
Certified nutritionists describe the 18:21 philosophy: with three meals per day over seven days per week, you’ll eat 21 total meals
If 18 of the 21 meals are completely healthy, you’ve created a successful, nutritious eating habit
