You could try mimicking McD's food at home.... I had an "Egg McMuffin" for breakfast just last week! Even the same food made at home with at least not contain so many fillers and chemicals! For burgers that taste more like theirs, just add onion powder, salt, and pepper and make them real thin!

You could also try rewards for when you can manage to fight the urge, like putting the money you probably would have spent there in a jar (or whatever) and then when you have enough...spend it on something awesome, like a new outfit or some spa treatment!

I hope this helps!

I look up to you smallwonders, I really do! To eat healthy food, I say you should buy a good cook book with tons of great recipes. Pick the recipe that you like and start cooking. I think home made food is much more delicious than junk food made by fast food chains.

Yes I agree that you could make your own fries and burgers at home.
If you can afford it and eat allot of meat get a mini automatic grill,
that cooks the meat for you.
There are many on the market, so you will have to look around.
They also keep the bread buns warming,

I think its really awesome you have given up fast food- one thing I always try to remember when I crave that type of food is thinking about how I feel after eating it- never makes me feel good or healthy! Eating a salad or fruit always does the trick..makes you feel good because it's good for you and you know you made a great choice for your body. Before putting food in your mouth- remember it is our fuel...is it going to help us or hurt us? My father once said that our food is the most intimate relationship we have and we have complete control over it...everything we eat will affect our minds, bodies, and health in one way or another- there are so many healthy foods out there to choose from. Make sure to have them readily available so when you are hungry it's not easier to stop in a fast-garbage place. I wish you the best in preparing and eating healthier foods!
