Missing the Junk Food?

You've started the New Year off on the right foot...but those nagging FEED ME! pains has you looking longingly at those "forbidden foods"....here is a tip to help turn down the volume on your hunger pangs....

Fill your diet full of healthy nutritious food!  Don't obsess about how much you should be eating or the foods you are missing. Instead, spend your energy thinking about what you should be eating.

If nutrient-rich fruit, vegetables, and whole grains aren't making frequent appearances in your diet, your body is going to miss them and loudly ask for more fuel. Same goes for lean proteins and healthful fats. Once you feed yourself better, and your body gets past the initial junk-food withdrawal, your taste buds will start to crave the healthy stuff.  

 Life expectancy would grow by leaps and bounds if green vegetables smelled as good as bacon.
