60% of calories Americans eat come from processed food. Let's make it 10%! Anne's guide to healthy meal planning: feedthemplants... Healthy brownie recipe: www.yummytoddl...
this is spot on! I actually started thinking of junk food as cigarettes. when I see junk food, I run the same narrative in my head. Just like when you see those anti-smoking ads of diseased lungs, I envision clogged arteries when I see junk food. I dont want atherosclerosis any more than I want emphysema. Maybe it’s time for anti-junk-food ads on tv.
As someone who **had** to start saying 'no' to food offers from friends or at work, etc., I quickly found how difficult it was to get other people to understand and respect it. Food is the #1 reward at work for anything, and it's usually something super unhealthy like pizza or cake. Or maybe someone brings donuts every Friday. There were times someone would pick a restaurant I couldn't eat at and everyone would be extremely uncomfortable when I sat at the table without a plate and just drank tea. But what else could I do? I didn't choose the place. Me saying 'no' made them feel guilty about eating in front of me, which in turn made saying 'no' extremely uncomfortable for everyone, but I had no choice if I didn't want to be sick for 3 weeks. Even just turning down free sandwiches in the break room can be met with resistance and confusion. I could never get my boss to remember I couldn't eat any of it. After awhile I resorted to smiling and saying "Ok, thanks!" and then just going back to what I was doing. That made him happy and it kept him off my back with constant pressure to join in. You can thank people for their offer without actually partaking. So, just know that saying 'no thank you' to food offers can cause people to grapple with their own internal struggles with food guilt and social conformity, but you don't have to give in just to make them feel better.
When I was working I needed to stay away from sugary treats. At first I'd say "No thank you", but I didn't want to reject peoples offerings especially if it was home-made, so then it evolved into saying "Thank you" and just taking a sliver. Then I decided what people really want is appreciation, so I would say, "wow that smells really good" and "That looks really wonderful", I might even take some on my plate, but somehow magically, none of it would make it to my mouth, and nobody seemed to notice.
@@danacorbin3199 That's a really great insight! The psychology of food is so strange to me sometimes. It's such a religion sometimes. But you're right, people just want to be appreciated. It's nice to know there's a way to reject the food without rejecting the person. 🙂
The similarities between food marketing and cigarette marketing isn't eerie if you know that Philip Morris bought Kraft and General Mills in the 80's and banded together with a few other cigarette companies to rebrand as Altria. The cigarette industry is quite literally the food industry now.

@@lygiabird6988 "What the Health" is a great documentary about it. When they show cigarettes in frying pans in the opening, they're not just whistling Dixie. Junk food is the cigarettes of the 21st century, designed and marketed by the exact same people.
I'm a RD student, and sometimes I wonder why Im spending so much on an education my mom basically taught me when I was younger: eat your vegetables. All jokes aside this is great practical advice that many people can apply with a little focus.
Now that we shop online, it's even easier to stick to a grocery list and not get seduced by grocery store psychological tricks. Because, even though being Celiac vegans severely restricts our impulse buy choices, there are still junk food products made just for us and they are every bit as tempting!
I keep a "snack back pack" in my car, so I always have healthy snacks and relatively healthy shelf stable ready to eat entrees for picnics, etc. I also bring some bananas, and Ezekiel raisin bread with me when I leave the house. I often bring an ice chest to carry a smoothie, and of course, drinking water. I keep trail mix in the snack back pack, and a great snack I dscovered at an Indian market called Roasted Chana. They have 3 ingredients- roasted chickpeas, turmeric and salt. As addictive as peanuts, and a great way to add protein and fiber on the go.
I love all of your videos. This one was especially helpful for me. I have been trying to eat wfpb for 4 years! But with 8 kids and community influences, I have struggled. I hope to use your tips to actually see the results of health and weight loss.
Spot on! Simple, no nonsense explanation. Enviable family (and friends) you have, Chris, you are really blessed. On a side note I had not idea Cinnabon is real! Now I wonder if Better Call Saul were paid by them and how much. Details of the arrangement between Loki (especially S2) and McDonald's comes to my mind.
When your local farmers market, at an actual farm owned by the family for generations, tells you that the cauliflower, eggplant and spinach are in and then shows you a bag of apple cider donuts !!! Oh, ye gods of nutrition give me thy strength...
Haha. That’s a tough one! I have noticed that our farmers’ market is now something like 1/3 stalls of fudge, bread, pies, kettle corn, etc. (1/3 farmers selling produce or meat or dairy, 1/3 non-food).
@@annebean1331 candles, baskets, dry goods, toys, hayrides, the corn maze- whatever they can do... they're in deep trouble and need all the help they can get.
@@njpaddler Sorry, I shouldn't have said *now*. I'm not sure ours has re-opened yet, unfortunately. I suppose the shift has been gradual, but it seems much of the produce has been replaced by baked goods and the like. It makes sense because they are responding to what people want to buy!
I’m not able to moderate either. But it’s salty foods that are my Achilles heel. If I have a bag of chips (doesn’t matter size) I’ll scarf those suckers down. I just don’t buy it. For me that’s the only solution. I do make some whole food based deserts that are actually delicious but I don’t eat them all in a sitting and they’re good for me!
I have never stopped missing sweets, and fresh fruit has never replaced or been a true substitute for the rich and buttery aspects of dessert for me. It could be that I tend and have always tended to eat emotionally. Food is not just about fuel to me. Wish it was. But it isn't. Also, the candy at my dentist's office has always been sugar free.
@@winniederby6924 I'm familiar with "the pleasure trap." And there absolutely is an emotional component to eating for me. There might not be for you, but you are not welcome to name or qualify MY experiences with food, thank you.
Very helpful and informative. I have battled with junk food for so long. For the past year I feel like I have come a long way in changing my lifestyle and solidifying good habits into my diet. 😃🌱
Thanks, Aubry! I just watched your video about being vegan in Brazil and loved it. Looks like whatever battles you had over junk food is mostly in the past, no? For me the only one that gets me is Trader Joe's 100% dark chocolate and I dunno how junk foodish that really is.
@@PlantChompers Thanks again for watching! That means so much to me. ☺️ Yes, most of my junk food battles are resolved & I feel so free. And I totally get what you mean. Everything in Trader Joe's that is labeled vegan catches my eye & I want to try it all. 😄
As a type-1 diabetic, it has always been important for me to check the ingredients and nutrition label on every food product I buy. Most people buy food on an emotional or aesthetic basis. If it looks "good", how bad can it be? However, reading the words and numbers that describe the foods they represent can act as a more powerful tool to understand what you plan to stuff in your face. While you know that donuts and cereal and candy have added sugars, that fact doesn't become REALLY UNDERSTOOD until you see the actual numbers that measure how much sugar that food product contains. You have been told that processed foods have added chemicals, but it's only when you scan the ingredient list and see all those hard-to-pronounce chemicals printed one after the other: the preservatives, the artificial and "natural" flavors and dyes... that's when the category of "PROCESSED FOOD" truly shows its ugly, WTF self!
It's all familiar. It's why I know it's best to go to the store with a list: get in, and get out as quickly as I can. Stay present, and as aware as possible. Funny how easy it is to go into that "magical thinking" moment of, "it won't matter, just this one more time." Who says, I think it's Dr. Klapper, "Your body is always watching." one moment can turn into many and one day, you just wonder how you got here. My mom died of colon cancer. It was a big wake up call for me. It still took a long time to get past the old messages in my head. Thanks for reminding me of some better magic moments that will help steer me straight.
This week in Austin has been so stressful. Lack of electricity and then lack of water.....it's been a big mess. I went to the gas station after going to the grocery and not finding any water and part of me knew half the reason I was actually going was to buy some junk food. I stared at the junk food and fought myself over it but I walked out of the gas station empty-handed. The worst I bought at the grocery was some veggie frozen pizzas that didn't have cheese. Still not great but I also bought some frozen baby potatoes so I think it evened out. lol.
Great advice. Harder in some ways if you're vegan and live with omnivores...they bring foods in that you don't eat. Not impossible to do, just takes more conviction.
I've been seeing this video pop up every now and then in my recommended tab for months. Now that I've finally watched it, I'm going to try and implement this advice! I realize that I need to start paying attention to and taking control of the quality of my food and the choices I make about what to eat, and so I hope I can improve my relationship with food going forward. I'll update this comment with my experiences!
My issue is when I meet up with friends. When I'm at home it's mostly easy to eat healthy, but when I'm sitting around a table and there are just snacks *everywhere*... I have slowly gotten better but I'm still somewhat disgusted with myself as I leave
Not having it in the house doesn't work for me... I'll drive to the store to get what I want when in the middle of an addiction... I wish it were that simple. That said, it really comes down to desire and shifting of thought processes.
Eating well has it's own self rewards, I feel satiated and do not crave junk foods, or even more good food - I just do not hunger for anything else. If I do wish to go off plan I'll allow one treat on Saturdays only, according to the BBC "Lördagsgodis: Why Swedes only eat sweets on Saturdays" - Swedes allow more than one treat on Saturdays, but it's a start....
I don't understand diets where you restrict any foods or track everything. I think they're for the people who are in their first 5 years of lifestyle change. I tried both of those strategies and they're not sustainable for me. Track stuff until your decent at estimating, and maybe weigh the calorically dense stuff or bulk meals. A brownie after a salad and dinner will do no harm to me. May even help fill my glycogen stores for workouts beyond what a "perfect" diet will do. If you want to make brownies or cookies, buy the raw ingredients and make small batches if you must. A package of premade brownies is going to be a lot more tempting than a bag of flour, some baking powder, and cocoa sitting in the cupboard. You have to look up a recipe, read reviews and measure stuff. I have an ice cream maker because the effort I have to put in to make the food keeps me from binging it. I don't want to waste the time it took to make it in one sitting. The same effect happens with any food I make vs purchase prepared.
I find I eat healthy for a few weeks like really healthy and then something happens and then I snap and have a week of binging on crap. I'm getting worse with age, the more I try fit into the box the more I spring free of it and go wild.

They are plant based. It’s better to be flexible than not trying at all. Also he who wears the hat didn’t eat the roll, his wife did.
