Central theme-
Eating Triggers, Part III

Thoughts for the week-
Some of the environments that can be toxic to our healthy eating habits:

• Work
• Home
• Parties
• Weddings
• Pot luck
• Cooking Shows
• Candy Aisle
• Car Office
• Regular, Social Get Togethers
• Weekends

Rate you toxic environments from 0 to 5. For me:
Work 4
Car 1
Home 4
Parties 3

How do we combat our toxic zones:

• Recognize- when you're in a toxic situation, or have a bad habit.
  
• Remove- yourself, or the food from the area, or the habit.
  
• Replace- the toxic food or environment with a healthy one, or the bad habit with a good habit.

For me, I'm ridding my fridge of full-fat cheese, and only buying reduced fat cheese; keeping more fruits and veggies on hand at work and home. And I'm going to keep a healthy snack in the car and at work.
