Does it still count if I had 7 glasses of water and a smoothie?
10yr
  • DietID_TeamDietitians Yep!!!! Smoothies have ice in them so that counts as a glass of water 👍👍👍
  • darkchocolatepeanutbutter Absolutely! Anything consisting of liquids counts although I suggest if you consume a caffeinated drink like coffee or green tea, to drink a glass of water afterwards. Caffeine can dehydrate the...
  • lenaaaap I have to disagree with darkchocolatepeanutbutter! Not anything consisting liquids count. You can't drink coke or something . It only counts water and unsweetened tee. But a smoothie is also ok...

Do lettuce, tomatoes, and onions on a sandwich count as a serving of fruits and vegetables?
10yr
  • bubblegem Well it depends on the amount of each maybe you could have 2 sandwiches and mix up the veggies on each one!
  • nikkipayne21 I think it does. I mean you're putting those vegetables in your body.
  • DietID_TeamDietitians @cristianpereira - if all 3 amount to about a cup, or a fist-full, then yes! It counts as 1 serving!

How i can avoid eating snacks?
10yr
  • lauren I keep my water bottle on me at all times! I think I read somewhere that when we crave salty snacks, we actually need water and could be dehydrated
  • emmie Eating snacks isn't necessarily bad for you- as long as they are healthy and a small size. :)
  • DietID_TeamDietitians For late night snacking, I get a cup of herbal tea instead so it fulfills my craving to consume something flavorful, makes me feel warm, but doesn't have caffeine so I won't stay up too late.

  • emmie I wouldn't really recommend following a strict diet plan, I would advise just striving to eat healthier overall. This puts less pressure on yourself and helps you create a healthy lifestyle instead...
  • DietID_TeamDietitians I agree with @emmie that putting a lot of pressure on yourself to have a strict plan oftentimes backfires. Instead, it's about making small changes and celebrating little victories. Generally...
