Spices can make your food so don’t be afraid to you them to add flavor that way you can avoid using comdements.

If you feel hungry in between meals drink more water. (trust me you probably will feel that way)

plan your food for the week ahead of time, make a grocery list and only get the things on your list.

Organic or non organic is up to you.

Buying is bulk is always good

If for some reason u are on the go and dot have a meal ready make smart choices

When eating out choose to not est from the bread basket they bring you (or in moderation). Choose meals with lean meats and carbs, get red instead of white sauces, now a days there is so much food n the plate eat just enough and share the rest or take it home for later even if your not full.

Dont let people sway your thinking

Stay away from sugary cereals in the morning. Instead choose oats and a natural sugar like berries

Drink less alcohol

Cook with nut oils and olive oils not butter

Try to stay away from juices, breads,dressings and contements.

If you want a salad us olive oil vinegar and seasonings

This is just a simple quick overview of ways to get started. Research research research and learn as you go. Dont get discouraged, we all have bad days. Do do your best to do your best each day!
