Stop eating fast food for 1 month


 

How to stop eating fast food for 1 month by LeeAnn_Gibson

"Just save yourself some money and be healthy"

How I did it: My husband is a penny pincher, so I have him to thank for not being allowed to go

My daughter is a health conscious teenager.  I have her to thank for support.

I am good at psychology, so I helped myself by imagining things that I don't like when I would drive by someplace I wanted to buy something.

Lessons & tips: Keep family sized frozen veggies on hand.  They make a good lunch, and you just put them in a big steamer pot while you take a shower or play the piano, or whatnot.

If you crave something and have a hard time driving by the restaurant, try imagining something that smells terrible.  In about a month you may not like it anymore.

Resources: Frozen vegetables, especially the Fiesta Vegetables.  These make a good lunch.  The fiesta veggies have beans in them so you get your proteins and you feel full.

    I Gave Up Fast Food...For Good! 3 years ago

    I gave up fast food entirely, but it was only about two months ago. It’s a bit difficult because I don’t drive, and often my dinner is either fast food or nothing. I think it’s easier to give fast food up forever, because you know you’ll eventually take it up again when you give it up for a month, so why wait?

    Also, if you’re craving fast food, I personally don’t think Chick-fil-A (if you have one nearby) counts as “fast food”, even though it’s quick and easy. In fact, in my town, it’s part of the Live Well program, and it’s actually pretty healthy.

    Good Luck!!

    You feel less greasy, less sluggish. After all – reading Fast Food Nation and seeing Super Size Me helped.

    I did it! To celebrate I had the most wonderful, cheeseburger from Wendy’s. It wasn’t really hard to give up, but I probably won’t do it again.
