How To Avoid Fast Food Altogether… Without Changing Your Commute Route

But you dont have to give in every time. There are plenty of easy ways to avoid fast foodwithout depriving yourself.

For example, its super easy to bring nuts, fruit, pretzels, popcorn, a fruit bar (Lara Bars are natural), low-calorie chips, or other healthy snacks to eat in your car. Infused or plain water can fill you up during your ride too.

Its similar to keeping your home pantry and fridge stocked with healthy foods and snacks. When youre starving and vulnerable, you might be susceptible to grabbing anything in your visual path.

Eating right is about being prepared. Its like defensive driving!

You will be bombarded by unhealthy choices out in public. If you have something else to snack on, you wont veer into a haven of fried foods and excessive portions.

There are people whose jobat least 40 hours per weekis to make their food irresistible! They spend hours on photo shoots and then in editing sessions just to make their food look so delicious that only those with the greatest willpower can forgo their temptations.
