How to Improve and Change Your Eating Habits to Healthy

6. Start a Journal

Keeping a food diary is one way to eat healthier. It’s not to keep track of calories or carbohydrates; rather, writing down your eating habits will help you understand why you ate what you did. Getting to the root of the problem is essential for behavioral change. For example, after a long day at work, you came home and ate chips and salsa while preparing dinner. Revisiting your food journal can help you figure out why you skipped breakfast and ate a small, hurried lunch you were starving when you got home and couldn’t wait!
