It's good to try to resist it but don't give it up completely.  The human mind craves stuff that they given up completely.\n\nIf you want to eat chocolate, eat only a very small amount once in a while.  Eat more pure chocolate, the type without the caramel, nuts, and other stuff.\n\nWhen you eat fast food, drink lots of water (bottled if you want), eat very small amounts, like a kid's meal (that's supposed to be the correct amount anyway.\n\nYou can eat fruits and vegetables to keep you filled up.\n\nThat's what I suggest.

Just dont eat it. Its only up to you. I know sometimes its hard to stop but you just have to find the will power. And tell yourself that you can do it!

You need to divert your attention.  Start thinking of food as a tool to maintain life rather than something fun to do.  If you can put some restrictions on yourself it will help.  \nFrom now on, each time you want something that isn't healthy or a part of a meal tell yourself you are only allowed to have it if you first walk around the block.  That way it will take your mind off of it.  If you still want it after the walk go ahead and eat it.  Or if you want an even harder fix, figure out how many calories are in the item, then figure out how long you would have to walk or run to burn the calories.  You can then force yourself to do that much exercise before eating the item.  \n\nI know it's hard, but eventually you'll get to a point where it's just not worth it to you to eat the item.  Also, allow yourself a cheat here or there.  Total deprivation never works.

Just do it.\n\nCut out the fast food joints, or have the salads, get rid of all the junk food in your house and replace it with fruits and veggies.\n\nIt's hard, but you can treat yourself with the mini candy bars or the occasional big mac.\n\nYou don't have to cut out the junk completely, just balance it with better foods.

Eat whenever you get hungry for now.  Take some food in a container and eat it whenever you get the urge.  You need the nutrition, your body can't function properly without it.

Well, I'd say your first step would be to pack your lunch,snacks, any food you need bring from home. Make sure it's healthy,low calorie and nutritious. You just have to say NO to that impulse to grab anything. Make sure you have something to eat at all times. Cereal bar, yogurt, I know it's hard but it's really the only way.You know, the same old same old...veggies, whole grains, proteins and watch the carb and sugar intake. Limit or better yet eliminate soda completely. Stick to water or milk. As far as exercise, if you can't squeeze even 20 minutes per day for yourself, then you need to re-evaluate what's going on. Your worth 20 minutes a day, don't you think? Good luck. I know it sucks, I struggle myself.

I must admit that I am in no way familiar with "The Tao of Health, Sex, and Longevity", however, I am currently a Dietetic Intern and have a degree in Nutrition and Dietetics. \n\nWhen anyone tries to eliminate entire food groups or classes of foods it is very hard. I would recommend that when you get those urges to make your own desserts/cravings at home. If you are not a big cook try the Kraft Foods website or other recipe websites. Kraft has simple, easy recipes and you don't have to use Kraft products to actually make the recipes, they just recommend that you do. Making your own cravings at home is usually cheaper and healthier and may be an excepted part of the regime you speak of. \n\nTruly healthy eating is not the elimination of foods but smart thinking and moderation. Many times distractions come when we place ourselves in places/situations where the distractions are. These may include television commercials, friends/family who do not follow the same regimes, etc. You may have to turn the TV off or inform your friends/faily of your regime and ask that they respect you and not take offense if you decline. \n\nSome more tips for resisting the urge include\n-chewing gum\n-sweet candies like Jolly Ranchers (just a few)\n-snacking on fresh fruit/vegetables\n-water or flavored water\n-exercise\n\nGood luck. As I said before, I'm not familiar with your regime, but the more you deny yourself, the more you will want it, so do everything in moderation and when all else fails, make it at home yourself.
