Some Quick Tips To Wean Yourself Off Of Fast Food

If it helps, change up the routes you take to and from your usual destinations so that you won’t pass fast food places. You might need to eat separately from coworkers or roommates who eat fast food for now. Being in close proximity will be difficult when you’re trying to quit the stuff. A study published in the National Library of Medicine shows that when we smell certain types of food (like sweet and salty stuff) we crave it. So even smelling it can be problematic for now.
