>'I quit one type of food and dropped 1.5 stone - it was easier than I thought'"Firstly, you don't have to quit cold turkey from day one, like I did. That can be tough and unsustainable. A simple starting point could be making easy swaps to meals and ingredients, for example, try nuts instead of granola or cereal for breakfast, with Greek yoghurt instead of the flavoured kind."Instead of crisps on the side of a meal or as a snack, eat nuts straight from the bag, make your own hummus or crispy chickpeas (all you do is cover some chickpeas from a tin in oil and stick them in the oven until they're crispy). You can then keep them in tubs or pots as go-to snacks."You can also try making homemade versions of your favourite foods. For example, bread is not hard to make at home and as you get more confident you can make healthy versions of the things you love - I made a "healthy Nutella" out of hazelnuts, cocoa powder, maple syrup and milk.https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/i-quit-one-type-food-33670177
