I am eating too much junk and processed food while watching movies and youtube videos. I want to stop as it affects my health. Any suggestions.

    Everyone is saying don’t but snack foods, which is one step. But if you don’t have some form of healthy snacks on hand, you’re just going to revert back to it. I suggest dehydrating fruits and having nuts and seeds available so you can still snack but not feel bad about it.

      I’ve replaced most of my sweet snacks with things like cheese or pumpkin seeds or cashews. It’s made a huge difference.

      If I really want something sweet, like you mentioned, I usually have dehydrated fruit or Greek yogurt with fruit.

      Definitely took time and effort to find healthier snacks but it’s been worth it.

      Dried fruit and nuts are all super calorie-rich options.

      Fresh fruit will be healthier. It’s still possible to overdo it, just more difficult.

      For something basically impossible to eat many calories with, vegetables kick butt. Cherry tomatoes, carrot sticks, cucumbers, and so on are the way to go.

      Nuts have hella calories though, you shouldn’t go too crazy snacking on them
