Diet and Health

To change your lifestyle, feel better and live longer you will need to start some new habits.  To set yourself up for success you will need to learn some new recipes.

Find recipes for all of the new healthy products you wil be eating such as barley, wholegrain pasta, brown rice, etc.  Add healthy fish, such as salmon and plenty of fruits and vegetables. 

You do not need to stress yourself out by telling yourself that you cannot have the things you used to eat.  Just slowly cut them out of your diet.  If you are eating healty 90% of the time and you slip in a donut every once in a while, you will still be doing better that you were before.  It is all about having mental control over yourself.  When you tell yourself you can’t have something, your brain starts to work overtime to manipulate you into having that item.  Tell yourself you can have anything you want, but you are just choosing not to have it today. 

Eventually you and your body will get used to your new diet and appreciate what it is doing for your health.  You will then not want or desire junk food any longer.

Make sure you always have plenty of fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds handy for snacking so that you are not tempted by chips and junk food.  Sunflower seeds are much tastier than any kind of chip on the market.
