Want to Get Off Junk Food; Make a Plan

 

Better: Formulate A Plan

Going into the grocery store with a meal schedule, shopping list and some extra willpower will help you avoid caving in and buying junk like frozen pizzas, doughnuts and ice cream.

Plus, having a plan will likely save you some time, as it will keep you from wandering aimlessly through the aisles, trying to figure out what to buy and cook. 

Your bank account will also benefit, since sticking to a list will prevent you from buying a bunch of random items that you don’t really need, or already have hiding in the back of your pantry. 

So make your list and check it twice -- then make it your personal mission to enjoy a shopping trip with health and wellness -- rather than chips and dip -- in mind.

Best: See It Through

It's a commonly held notion that people don’t like change. When it comes to making edits to your daily diet, that can certainly be true... until you start to see noticeable differences in your appetite (lower), energy (higher) and waistline (shrinking by the day). 

The fact is, humans aren't naturally programmed to require all of the added sugar, fat and salt we’ve become accustomed to eating via the consumption of prepackaged, restaurant and fast food. “Our taste for salt doesn’t develop until six months of age,” says Moss. “You can get unhooked on salt in about six weeks.”

Think about that for a minute: six weeks to a healthier, stronger, leaner you. I’m not saying it won’t be challenging, but that kind of payoff has the potential to boost your self-esteem and overall health. What are you waiting for? Go ahead and start the process of ditching unhealthy junk!
