If there are foods that I love but not the most nutritious, and I want to eat better, I try to find ways to recreate it in a healthier way. One example is pizza, I found a way to make and eat one when I was doing a cleanse. The dough had same ratios of sweet potato and oat flour with seasonings of your choice. And do topping of your choice. Another times I made pancakes (I don’t remember the ingredients), and I made a yogurt lemon sauce with it and it was so good! But it’s also ok to give in and have some cake for example and try to eat good the rest of the day to balance it out, that is still satisfying. I would suggest to think about the foods you love and see what you can make out of them

Isabella, I try to eat healthy 6 days out of the week. Day 7 is my “Cravings” day. I’m trying to lose weight so I watch the scale too. When I see the numbers go down/start feeling better from eating well, I feel good. After day 7, the opposite and it gives me motivation for the next 6 days. Fast Food is my weakness. I will tell you this - once you stop eating the indulging foods, you stop craving them. I had ice cream the other day and couldn’t finish it. Too sweet! Danish? Too sweet! Soda? Tastes weird! Pizza? It’s actually not that bad for you. I dab the top with napkins to get that grease off :)

I think it’s ok to enjoy indulging everyone and again. I try to follow the 80/20 rule. So 80% of the time I eat whole food and healthy and 20% I eat processed or pizza or cake or whatever indulgence I fancy!
