Fast food restaurants are everywhere. If you’re low on money and hungry, you have plenty of unhealthy options and you don’t even have to get out of your car. But if you want to eat healthy, it takes much more effort. Does anyone have a good tip about how to make a healthy eating routine easier to accomplish?
The problem with fast food restaurants for the most part is even the "healthier" choices aren’t that good. McDonalds uses Iceberg lettuce, the cheapest and lest beneficial kind.
On the road, try to find a Subway or Mr. Sub. A more economical choice (an healthier) is to keep a stock of healthy foods in your car or purse. Try keeping ready-to-eat cans of tuna, granola bars or even a box of cereal in your car.
For at home, it’s more than just what you eat, it’s how you prepare what you eat. Don’t fry your chicken, grill it. Buy lean cuts of meat, and eat less pork. Avoid bacon, but subsitute for chicken or turkey bacon. A great thing is grapeseed oil. It’s cheaper, healthier and better tasting than your regular olive oil.
The most important thing is to be motivated. Set a goal, write it down, put it on a post-it note on your fridge, and stick to it. Find your incentive and think about it before you eat. Lastly, always eat breakfast even if it’s a small one. It will boost your metabolism, as skipping breakfast for a year can result in more than 10 pounds of weight gain.
