This is so true and it works.  I've lost 15 lbs., over the summer so far, and once you eat well, you really don't want the junk anymore and sugar tastes too sweet.  Now, I only put half and half creamer in my decaf coffee and no sugar or sugar substitute and it's delicious.  It takes time for your body to adjust, but the benefits are awesome.  If I can do it, so can you :) :) :)

It’s important to remember that what you eat affects how stressed you are. Basically, if you eat garbage, you’ll feel like garbage!

Try to drink more water and eat fresh fruits and vegetables. And it’s good practice to eat less fatty, greasy and salty foods. At the very least, try to eat less fast food and eat more food that is not packaged or prepared.

Reduce your alcohol and caffeine intake. If you’re drinking a lot of coffee or getting caffeine from other sources (chocolate, cola, or diet cola) consider cutting down or switch to decaffeinated coffee, tea, or colas. If you’re taking a lot of caffeine, don’t cut back all at once. Reduce your caffeine intake slowly. For example, drink one less cup of coffee each day.

Eat healthy, tasty, well-balanced meals as much as possible and avoid fad diets. If you snack, buy low-fat snacks like crackers, fruits, veggies or toast (instead of donuts, candy, or potato chips).
