Common pitfalls
Here are a few things that often cause problems:
❌ Eating too little (often leads to cravings and fatigue)
❌ Cutting out entire nutrients
❌ Chasing perfection instead of consistency
❌ Skipping meals
❌ Believing that results require extreme changes
👉 What works best is what you can stick to over time.
Good staples to have at home 🛒
To make things easier—stock your kitchen with good ingredients:
Rice, pasta, potatoes
Oats
Meat, chicken, fish
Eggs
Quark, cottage cheese
Frozen vegetables
Fruit
Nuts
Olive oil
When you have good food at home, making good choices becomes automatic.
How to use your staples in practice
Many people think they “have nothing at home”—but often it’s more about not knowing what to make with what you have.
Here are a few simple go-to meals you can always throw together:
Quick lunch/dinner:
Rice + salmon + frozen vegetables + salt
👉 It doesn’t have to be complicated—the most important thing is that it gets done.
Tip: Build meals using a simple template
Think like this when you’re cooking:
Protein: meat, chicken, fish, eggs, quark
Carbohydrates: rice, pasta, potatoes, oats
Fat: olive oil, nuts, eggs
Vegetables: fresh or frozen
If you have these four components → you have a complete meal.
Make it even easier for yourself
Always have something ready in the fridge/freezer (e.g. pre-cooked chicken or cooked rice)
Choose simple over perfect
Buy the same staple foods every week—so you don’t have to think
Nutrition tips to help you build a sustainable diet
Small habits make a big difference over time. Here are simple guidelines to keep in mind in your daily life:
Eat vegetables with at least 2 meals per day
→ Adds volume, nutrients, and helps keep you full
Make sure to include protein in every meal
→ Examples: chicken, fish, eggs, quark, cottage cheese
→ Helps you build muscle and stay full longer
Eat carbohydrates before training
→ Provides energy and better performance
→ Examples: oats, rice, potatoes, fruit, bread
Refuel with protein after training
→ For recovery and results
→ Examples: protein shake, quark, eggs, or a proper meal
Have regular meals
→ Try not to skip meals—it often leads to stronger cravings later
Always have a “good option” within reach
→ For example: quark, fruit, smoothie, protein shake, overnight oats, or nuts
→ Makes it easier to make good choices when you’re hungry
Drink enough water
→ Fatigue and hunger can sometimes be dehydration
The 80/20 rule
→ Eat well most of the time—but leave room for flexibility
→ That’s how you create something sustainable
Keep it simple
→ You don’t need to cook advanced meals—simple food is good food
Let go of perfectionism
→ A good diet isn’t about being perfect, but consistent
Plan your meals in advance (a little is enough!)
→ You don’t need to meal prep everything—but have a plan for the day
Shop when you’re full
→ Reduces the risk of impulse buys
Have simple “go-to” meals you can always make
→ Removes the stress of deciding what to eat
Accept that some days won’t be perfect
→ The next meal is always a new opportunity
See food as fuel—not just emotion
→ How do you want to feel and perform?
Get enough sleep
→ Sleep affects hunger, cravings, and food choices
Be consistent—not extreme
→ That’s what creates results over time
Allow yourself to enjoy food
→ Restriction often creates more cravings than control
Summary
You don’t need to make it complicated.
A sustainable diet is about:
✔ balance
✔ simplicity
✔ consistency
Let go of the idea of “perfect”—and focus instead on what you can do every day.
That’s where results are created 🤍
At Livity, we stand for a simple approach to nutrition and a sustainable lifestyle. 🍏
But how do you actually get there?
Those of you who have been using Livity for a while know that we don’t believe in extreme diets. Instead, we want to create a lifestyle that’s sustainable over time—both for your body and for life as a whole.
We’re not after quick solutions or “quick fixes” that don’t last in the long run. We want to give you tools that work—today, tomorrow, and years from now.
This article will help you understand how to think about nutrition in a simple and sustainable way.
The foundation: all nutrients are needed
To feel good and achieve results, your body needs all nutrients.
Completely excluding something is rarely a good idea.
Balance is key—and when you get the right distribution of nutrients, energy, recovery, and results will follow.
PROTEIN 🥩
Protein is perhaps best known for building muscles—but it’s so much more than that.
All of our cells need protein, and it’s an essential building block for muscles, hormones, and the immune system.
If you get enough protein, you’ll also feel fuller and recover better from training.
