It can be hard to maintain a lifestyle if you have someone who doesn't agree with it. No one wants to play the healthy food vs junk food game everyday, because it gets old and tiring very quickly. So, how can you get your spouse to eat healthy?1. Be encouraging. Explain to him or her the importance of eating a healthy diet.
2. Get the whole family involved. It's much easier to do things together, than it is alone.
3. Involve him or her in the planning of meals and the grocery shopping.
4. Try new and different recipes. Eating healthy doesn't have to be boring or taste bad.
5. Try to keep healthy foods and snacks around the house.
6. Pick good books to read regarding making the transition to a healthy lifestyle. Include the whole family. Don't know what kinds of books to consider? Check out my Health Essential Books Store in my side bar for some of my recommendations.
7. Kindly, remind them that we have only one body and we have to take care of it, because if we don't who will? Nothing is worth being miserable over, and especially because one chooses to eat poorly.
8. Don't argue, and this is a big factor. Don't let food be the reason for an argument.
9. Have patience, and be understanding. Remember, the food industries are using ingredients that is causing it to be addictive. It also takes time for a person to break bad habits.
10. Lead by example. If you are looking and feeling good. That's something that few people can resist.
