Most of us are creatures subject to habit. We buy the same foods from the same grocery store, we cook again and again according to the same recipes. But if you are serious and want to eat healthier and lose weight, you need to change these bad eating habits, and start thinking differently about your diet and lifestyle.

The problem is that we feel so comfortable in our monotonous lifestyle that it is difficult to give up these old habits. Many people are skeptical about changing their diet because they are used to eating the same foods, and there is exactly the fear of the unknown or trying something new. Even when you want to change, old habits die hard. Even those who manage to change bad eating habits can easily fall back into the trap of the "good old days" at some stressful time. When they feel weak or vulnerable.

Combating poor nutrition and habits requires a tripartite approach:

• Be aware of bad habits.

• Understand why these habits exist.

• Finding ways to slowly transform poor nutrition and habits into healthy new ones.
