I also don't drink soda anymore, though it's hard when my fiance drinks it (not his fault though, he doesn't rub it in my face.)0 -

I have 3 off the top of my head that are like second nature now...
1. Workout first thing in the morning. (4x/week)
2. Adding a handful of spinach to my protein shake every morning.
3. Wearing my fitbit and getting 10,000 steps a day minimum.
PS. 6 months diet pop free!0 -
Meal Prep!
I've been prepping most of my meals ahead of time for the last few months. This has helped prevented me from eating crap food so many times. When I have some free time in the evening, I cook 10-12 chicken breasts or fish fillets at once, several sweet potatoes, a pot of rice and steal cuts oats. I have frozen green veggies and edamame in my freezer at all times for an easy veggie side when I'm rushed. I make a few trips a week to pick up fresh veggies and greens and then cut em up at night before bed so that I have salad ready. I build my meals from most of these stables and I always bring an additional healthy meals and snacks with me to put in the fridge at work in case I take overtime or don't have time to come home. I keep a few scoops of whey protein powder in a tiny container in my purse too. I try to have Almonds, rice cakes and peanut butter, cottage cheese or hard boiled eggs around for healthy snacks.0 -
I try to decide what I'm going to choose to eat at a restaurant BEFORE I get there, so I can make an informed, healthy choice ahead of time. I can also plan how much to set aside in a to-go box below I even begin to eat. We don't eat out often, but at least I have a game plan for when we do. Most restaurants have menus online, and then I can look up the dish on MFP. 0

That's a good one! I rarely drink soda and try to drink lots of water.0

Good ones - I'm actually going to start adding spinach from time to time in my Shakeology bc I don't eat enough veggies! 0

Fairdra - such an easy way to get a serving of veggies in right away! And you can't even taste the spinach!0
