Here are suggestions on how to resist the temptation, courtesy of Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry:
- Try to spend most of your shopping time in the produce section. Load up on fresh fruits and vegetables -- you can also get frozen or canned fruits and veggies to save on preparation time.
- Buy only whole-grain or multi-grain breads.
- Allow yourself to buy one dessert a week. Denying yourself junk food altogether could lead to binging.
- Choose only low-fat dairy products.
Buy enough fish and lean meats (like chicken) for at least three meals per week. - Read the labels on everything you buy. Limit saturated fats in foods to no more than 15 percent of each item's total calories.
