can you really give up junk food, in order to be healthier?

I hate junk foods. in this modern fast food world its very difficult to avoid junk foods also. however i and my whole family use to consume the World class wellness company natural products which helps us remove toxins from the body and give more oxygen and blood circulation to the body and strenthen the immune system have a healthy and wealthy life

Junkfood is an addiction (sugar and salt etc.. is addictive) so it IS hard to give up - but once you've done it successfully you don't really want it - you don't miss it once you've broken that addiction.

well my husband and I are both on a health kick and we have to lose weight, one of the big things to go is junk food blessed be

Eating healthy is very hard to maintain for people who are always busy (posting on myLot :D). They do end up eating fast food and drinking soda. :P

I only buy myself a limited amount, and I spend the rest of my money on other kinds of foods. I generally don't have enough money to waste on stuff like that.

For me it is easy, as I go to the gym regularly I eat very healthily knowing that two hours of keep fit and muscle building the last thing I want to do is build up with junk! I never go to junk food restaurants all that grease yuk! My only junk food vice is chocolate, well you can't deprive a man of all his pleasures ;0)

Oh I couldn't give up junk food if I tried - I would simply die - no honestly I would! I'm useless at cooking, I live on my own and work full time - so when I come home from work the quickest thing is to chuck something in the microwave! Now I know you're going to say I'm lazy, but I can assure you i'm not! I'm a born terrible cook - I burn soup. I have tried to cook in the past and end up throwing it in the bin because it's burned/tastes vile so i've given up being so wasteful and will stick to microwave meals from now on - it's better on the environment!

i think you should not give up junk food just to become healthier. i think that there are many ways to become healthy not just by giving up junk food.

hello eaforeman6. Yes, I can say that I can give up junkfood in order to be healhier. At first it was hard but, little by little I notice that I dont eat junkfood that much anymore. At first I started avoiding junkfood and started eating fruits and vegetables instead.

Hello eaforeman6, I seldom eat junk food for snack anymore. I usually have it once or twice, sometimes none in a week. As to totally give it up I think I can though bit by bit, it will be really hard. :-)

You dont have to give up junk food to become healthy... There is a saying that all things should be took in moderation! And besides, if you were to eat only healthy food you would become de-malturished (what ever the word is) so you need that extra fat / sugar / energy in youre life!

hi there. i dont give up junk food ever...why? because i believe taht will just lead me to overbinge. also i eat it in moderation and i ensure that i have my cup of green tea close by to detoxify. happy mylotting!

Sadly maybe I cannot do that. although I know that its really not healhty consuming junk food and all. why junk food had to be so tasty? but probably if it not that tasty it will not called junk food. But I did try to minimize my consumption of junk food.

No way. I have my own theroy on what is healthy. If I eat a big salad with lots of vegies then I have the right to eat what ever junk food I wish. I think that balances it all out... don't you?

i am not really sure about this and would not want to be hypocrite and say yes right away.. but can't do it in real life. right now i am on a low fat low salt diet but i have not been diligently avoiding it to this time. so there.. maybe it would depend on my motivating factor.

Hi there my friend. 2 weeks a go I went to one city, southern part of Croatia and stayed in a friends family. I noticed how they managed the family to stay away from junkies. The family members are 4, one son and one daughter, and all of them are working. The mother and -sometimes- her daughter or the father prepared some basic things in the evening, so that she/the mom can cook the meal the next day when she coming back from her office around 3 o clock in the afternoon. Her husband and kids are coming back around 4 or 5 o clock in the afternoon. Then they having their meal around 5 or 5-30. So they only having their main meal once in a day. Breakfast and afternoon home made ?lunch?... And in the evening they didnt have dinner, only some fruits. I noticed thats how the family stay away from the junk meal. Or maybe it is just the tradition there, I dont know... Because I didnt ask, are their neighbours do the same thing?... May fun be with you. p.s.: Thanks for picked my reply as your best answer for your deja vu tophic.

In my mind, I've changed the name from 'junk' food to 'treat' food... we have it one day a week and make it special! Since my Hun is diabetic, he can't have much... but to say he couldn't have ANY got him all rebellious! We found a place where we could satisfy the cravings and not hurt either of us! When my kids were small, I lost 75 lbs. by deciding I HATED cookies... since cookies were the only sweets I kept around, it worked! The mind and the cravings can be controlled... when I want a grease-burger, I chew on broccoli until I'm over it!

to begin with i don't take junk food at all. i mean i take only when there are no options at all! so it is very very easy for me to give it up!
