How to Get and Stay Motivated to Eat Healthy

Plan the way you eat.

We encounter lots of folks who fall off the healthy-eating wagon because they lack a game plan. Perhaps you have experienced this in your own life. How often do you resort to dubious takeout or fast-food dinners because you don’t have enough groceries at home? It’s a common problem, and resolving it typically means paying more attention to how you’re going to eat in advance.

Bonus Tip

If you find yourself in a pinch, don’t have much food in the kitchen, and need a quick bite, you can visit Island Fin Poké for HEALTHY fast food. Planning mistakes happen to the best of us, so it’s nice to have a reliable relief option that won’t force us to jettison a healthy diet. Salmon, Og Veggies, spring mix, and cucumber poké bowls are a great solution to any pantry crisis.

Develop a “Why” for eating healthy.

If you don’t know why you should eat healthy, you’re not likely to do so because it’s challenging and requires deliberate consistent action. Do you want to look better for your husband/wife? Are you trying to better manage your blood sugar or avert health problems? Whatever your reasoning, you need to define it clearly. Otherwise, you will not have the necessary motivation to continue a disciplined eating regimen.

Don’t assume you need to eat lousy/bland food to eat healthy.

There’s the sad misconception that you can only eat healthy by consuming flavorless, uninspiring food. This is anything but true, however. It’s easier now than ever to find all sorts of diverse ways to prepare your food so that you don’t get bored with what you’re eating.

Also, when you visit Island Fin Poké, you get the chance to try dozens of combinations of Hawaiian-style seafood entrees.
