To be, or not to be… healthy!
I wish health food tasted the same as ice cream, pizza, or chocolate.
I noticed something interesting though, and that is if you can prevent yourself from buying anything unhealthy at the grocery store, you can eat healthy by way of force. Of course you also need to swear off any type of fast food, but for the most part, not buying unhealthy food is the trick.
My problem is drinks. Often times I will stop at a Rite Aid, CVS, Walgreens, Gas Station etc, and purchase an energy drink. I can’t even count how many ways an energy drink is bad for you. The best way to handle this urge is to never carry cash with you and only make completely necessary stops.
When thinking back to my own eating habits and trying to analyze how to correct them, I found myself eating unhealthy in moments of opportunity. So I started to plan ahead and remove those moments of opportunity. If I didn’t bring a lunch to work, that created an opportunity to go out to a fast food restaurant rather than purchasing a deli sandwich.
