Do You Plan Your Meals β€” or Decide What to Eat When You're Already Hungry? πŸ˜…

A recent report highlighted something we should all be paying attention to: type 2 diabetes is now South Africa's leading natural cause of death.

The latest mortality data cited in the report recorded 27,692 diabetes deaths in South Africa in 2023.

This isn't just about people who already have diabetes.

Our everyday habits matter:

πŸ₯— What we eat
πŸ₯€ How many sugary drinks we consume
🍽️ Our portions and eating patterns
πŸƒ How active we are
βš–οΈ Maintaining a healthy weight
🩺 Getting checked rather than waiting for symptoms

The good news? Small, consistent lifestyle changes can make a difference.

That's why I created MyTasty Wellness β€” to have practical conversations about eating better, moving more, sleeping well and building healthier everyday habits.

And no, this doesn't mean you can never eat pap or rice again. πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦

It's about learning how to build healthier meals around the foods we already enjoy.

πŸ‘‡ What's ONE healthy change you could make this week?

More vegetables? Less sugary drinks? Smaller portions? More walking? Better sleep?

Let's start with one.

Small habits. Better health. One day at a time. πŸ’š

If you're concerned about your diabetes risk, speak with a healthcare professional about screening and personalised advice.

Can Healthy Eating Really Be Affordable? πŸ’°πŸ₯—

A lot of people think eating healthy means spending more money.

But healthy eating doesn't have to mean buying expensive "health foods."

You can build nutritious meals around everyday foods such as:

🍚 Rice and pap
πŸ₯š Eggs
🐟 Pilchards and tuna
πŸ— Chicken
πŸ₯¬ Seasonal vegetables
🫘 Beans and lentils
🍌 Affordable fruit

The key is learning how to plan your meals and shop wisely.

So let's talk:

πŸ‘‡ What's your biggest challenge when trying to eat healthy on a budget?

Is it:

1️⃣ Food prices
2️⃣ Knowing what to cook
3️⃣ Meal planning
4️⃣ Finding healthy options your family will eat
5️⃣ Something else?
