Answer 1

switch to fruit or yogert instead of junk food. If you want bit size stuff to munch on try grapes or popcorn without butter.

Answer 2

Try eating veggies and fruits in place of your junk food and satisfy your junk food cravings with those 100 calorie packs...just make sure you eat 1 a day! Also brushing your teeth will help with cravings because you won't want to get your teeth gritty feeling!

Answer 3

Get the South Beach Diet book and follow the diet religiously. If you do this you will not like eating that crap anymore and will be cleansed. That means no soda you hear me? no High Fructose Corn Syrup! But that will be controlled after the normalcy returns in your blood sugar and your insulin lessens.

The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:

*1) Burn more calories then you're consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity. Get a diet and fitness calculator that you can put on your computer or cell phone. This will allow you to easily calculate this formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.

*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.

Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:

You can still eat junk food, just buy more healthy stuff
