Your diet is literally everything you eat and drink in a day, regardless of if you are working toward a goal number on the scale or just living your life day by day. According to the dictionary, a healthy diet is "a diet which is heavily weighted towards ‘good foods’ while minimizing ‘bad foods.’" [1] A healthy diet does not simply depend on the food pyramid, or any variation of targeted amountsing of food-groups. Though it is important to eat a certain amount of fruit and vegetables each day, meeting these suggested servings is not the same thing as creating a diet that will help you live the best life you can.
