I was thinking about a book I read, called "The Secret Guide to Health", by Wayne Green. He gives credit to the raw food diet for his abundant and excellent health. He does though, eat a little raw meat, although 90 percent of what he eats, isn't meat.
Anyways, I was reading one of his articles on raw food or something and he mentioned a way to eat whatever you want, sort of...
I'll illustrate an example.
Basically, let's say you have a cookie. What you can do is just chew the cookie up in your mouth , but then not swallow it, just spit it out in the trash or somewhere else where the remains can be disposed of properly. This way, you can enjoy the food, without actually putting the crap (sugar etc.) in your body.
Now, granted, you still will probably want to brush your teeth after eating something processed or sugary. Also, you will probably still be hungry so you will have to eat something else. Also, it might not seem as satisfying.
Some methods that I used to use for trying junky foods:
1. Imagine yourself eating the food. You can remember the taste if you try hard enough in your mind. (You probably have to have tried the food at least once before for this to work.) You don't have to eat it if you can just imagine yourself eating it. (Try lucid dream eating also)
2. Once you've tried a food at least once, remind yourself that you don't need it anymore, and just choose to eat to live instead. (instead of live to eat)
3. Every christmas or so, one of my relatives would bake a cake. I told myself that every 3rd time or so, I could have a piece of cake. The next two times i had to skip it though.
--Take from this what you will....
