To avoid fast food prepare some healthy snacks beforehand and bring them with you. 😁🍎

DietID_TeamDietitians yes!! I always leave almonds in my purse for this reason.
I made it 24 days on the The Stop Eating Before Bed Challenge!

annefood Fab @purplebatman ! How has it been going? Have you noticed a difference in your sleep or digestion?
While doing the 'Eat Less Meat' challenge I made tacos made with refried beans instead of hamburger or chicken. They were delicious!
Beans are a great source of protein. Just replace meat with beans! Beans are healthy and taste good.

annefood Awesome idea @purplebatman ! I love beans in tacos! So good.

NellieGillespie Do u have the recipe? I would love to give it a go!!
To avoid unhealthy, sweet desserts start eating sweet tasting fruits like apples or bananas and consider that as a dessert.

annefood Great tip as always, @purplebatman !

LaurenDiebolt Smoothies have a lot of sugar in them, even if it's natural sugar. Your body also digests it much faster than if you just ate the ingredients you would put into a smoothie, so you are full for a...

tenniscourt18 That's exactly what I put in my smoothies! They're a perfect way to eat your fruits. They're quick and easy if you're on the go too!
Drink out of a straw when drinking water, as you do not have to think about it and it is easy to distract yourself while drinking.
-
Mauneumann This may be true, but the straw produces much more waste because of the plastic. We should also think about eating sustainably!!!
-
Brianne Yes! I actually have reusable straws at home for this reason, but I agree, the straw makes it easier =)

NehaNBB I have one of those camelback water bottles that have a straw. It's awesome.
