Healthy Diet
A healthy lifestyle starts from the inside, so fueling your body with nutritious and delicious food is a key component of feeling great. But, we know that coming up with a meal plan and cooking fresh food everyday can be a lot of work––good thing there are so many great local Baltimore restaurants that make healthy eating easy!

Another great way to make healthy living easy is meal prep. That way, you can avoid the nightly struggle of “what am I going to have for dinner?” Your meal will be prepped ready to eat! There are some great meal prep companies that serve Baltimore, so prepared meals are delivered right to your door. It doesn’t get easier than that!
Jimmy's Famous allows you to “set it and forget it.” Simply select how many meals you want per week, whether you want to pick it up or have it delivered, and your preferred meal plan.

They offer keto and paleo-friendly plans, too!
Simply pop one of John’s Fit Meals into the microwave, and poof! You have a hot, delicious and healthy meal ready to go.

When you order your meals, you can even see the macro information for each dish, so you know exactly what you’re getting and how it can fit into your fitness plan.
Healthy Mind
While lots of resolutions are centered around weight loss or dieting, it’s important to consider all aspects of health. With all of the turmoil of the past few months, you may be feeling more stressed or upset than usual. Taking extra steps towards mental self-care is another important way to feel healthier and happier in the new year. Try adding a mental health component to your New Year’s resolutions, like starting a habit of journaling or meditation.
