A lot of times people have the motivation to eat healthier, but putting it into practice becomes a little difficult. If you find yourself in this position, there are some easy ways to pull yourself out of it! You can actually trick yourself into eating healthier with these tips, so give them a try!
Prep
If you prepare your food before you get hungry, you are much more likely to eat it. Have things in your fridge that are ready to go like quinoa, brown rice, sauteed vegetables, or soup so when you do get hungry, you have some quick fixes that will satisfy and keep you healthy.
Snacking
Snacking can be bad if you’re munching on the wrong kinds of food because you are more likely to eat something if it’s in front of you. Instead of mindless eating unhealthy snacks, swap them for fruits and veggies! The same rules apply, but instead of mindlessly eating chips, you’ll be mindlessly eating carrots or grapes.
Plates
You can trick your brain into thinking you’re eating more than you are, which is really helpful when you want to control your portions! By eating something off a smaller plate, your brain will think it’s actually large because it’s comparing it to the size of the plate.
