I have been eating so much better over the past few months, but these last few weeks have been sitting around eating junk! Help! Has anyone overcome this healthy eating 'funk?' I would love some advice.

Sarah, What I do is everytime I want some thing "junk" to eat I drink a full glass of water, if I still feel like I want it I have 2 or 3 cookies or whatever it is I am wanting. Another thing that has helped me is to grab fresh fruit or veggies to snack on. HTH, I'm here if you need me  |

Much appreciated, Ellise! I've gotten in the habit over the past year or so eating a lot of fruits and vegetables but the last couple of weeks have been awful to stay motivated to be healthy. No idea why! The water thing is a great idea, as I never drink enough water.

I find that if I have to write down everything I eat in a day, and face the calorie totals for those things, I can stay more motivated.
I think we all have those times where its hard to stick with healthy eating. There's just so much temptaion out there.
Hugs,
Melody

Seuss34. Would you like a weight loss buddy. Just someone to motivate you into weight loss. We are doing that and also journaling it. Check out the journal threads and sign up for a buddy.
Junk food is hard for me to avoid too. I am diabetic so counting carbs is a must and so difficult. I am trying to drink 8 glasses of water a day.
Let us know how you do. We care.
