Chips are a big topic in weight loss. People love their chips, including me. I had to get over that and it was not easy. Most of the chips you find packaged are full of addictive and harmful additives and they are hard to break free of.
Chips are a comfort food for many and the mindless crunching seems to fill a need. Telling people to eat celery instead is not good advice.
I help people by telling them to at least get organic. Then try to make them a special treat. Don’t eat them out of the bag. Don’t eat them alone, but make them part of a meal. In the beginning of our time together this is not easy advice to take. It is much better to eat the whole food – potatoes or corn. But them the crunch is not there.
Now in Thailand I do not eat chips at all. We do have some imported from the states but they do not tempt me after years of avoiding them.
