Shift Weekly: Confessions of a Junk Food Junkie and her Veggie-Filled Redemption
Is there hope for a junk food junkie? Is there a path to recovery for a candy-bar-holic? Can a former Mc Donald’s disciple be redeemed? Should the Betty Ford Clinic open a “Fast Food” wing? When it comes to junk food (or GAK as we like to say at SHIFT) sometimes it can feel like an uncurable addiction.
Learn the inside secrets of how Shifter Linda Buffington made her amazing transformation from a “McDonalds Munching Mama” to a “Wellness Coordinator” who helped her husband improve his diabetes and now helps others make the same healthy changes in their own lives in this Shift Talk Radio session. (see ideas to infuse your life with veggies below)
Listen and learn:
-how Linda helped her husband improve his diabetes
-how she transformed from fast food and chocolate bars to a plant-based diet
-tactical ideas about getting more fruits and vegetables in your life including the fruits and vegetable supplement JUICE PLUS

BRAINY NO-BRAINER WAYS TO INFUSE YOUR LIFE WITH MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES
-Have at a little fruit with each meal. It's easy. For instance, have blueberries or
a banana on some 0% fat Greek yogurt or oatmeal in the morning, a piece of fresh fruit with your lunch and/or as a snack and a fruit serving with dinner. (If you don't feel like cooking a vegetable or making a salad, slice up some cantaloupe or a few apples.)
-Challenge yourself to try at least one new vegetable or fruit each week. Shake things up with a veggie swap out at dinner by switching from the old familiar green beans, apples and bananas to kale, winter squash, mango and kiwi.
-Eat more salads as “meals”. Use a large salad as the base, but, throw in meat
"condiments"— several ounces of cooked chicken, turkey, tuna or some low-fat cheese
and/or legumes. (this alone would equal about 4-5 serving of veggies).
-Mix fruit and vegetables. Add sliced or chopped apples, pears, grapes, melon, kiwi and
orange sections to tossed, spinach and cabbage salads.
-Take advantage of ready-made bag salads and precut and cleaned fruits and vegetables (melons; salad greens, shredded cabbage for coleslaw, grated carrots, stir-fry vegetables, and baby carrots). These are great when you're in a time crunch have worked all day and just want to throw something together.
-If you're in the dessert habit, try substituting fruit in place of dessert. For instance, try an apple baked with some cinnamon and a few raisins or a sliced up banana with a couple teaspoons of chocolate sauce drizzled over it.
-Put vegetables in everything: eggs, soups, sandwiches, stews, or mix green beans or broccoli with pasta or substitute the pasta altogether with a bowl of greens topped with marinara sauce and Parmesan.
