You can go in there with a laser beam focus instead of wandering around like "oooo, this looks like it would be interesting" Once that starts to happen, it's usually a slippery slope into "how the hell did this end up in my cart?!"

What I also find helps is to pre-plan your shop and make a list. I sit down and work out my meals for the week, then generate a shopping list. When shopping with a list Im like a man on a mission, oblivious to the slick marketing, I just get in, get everything on my list and leave. Not only do I not impulse buy crap food, I also save myself a huge amount of time. No aimless wandering up and down the aisles. I like the advice about not going shopping hungry.

Have go-to meals already prepared or at least the ingredients handy. Makes for a boring but survivable kitchen. Not only get the bad food out of the house but get the good food in.

Success is more habit than anything else. Thanks for commenting!

Same for workouts, i prepare my gym bag, my workout in the evening. In the morning, when your brain is coming up with excuses, i just need to get up from bad (the alarm is out of my HAND reaching area), take my gym clothes and leave. Like this, i'm preparing to succced. Fail is a small probability. I will write a full article about this on my blog, i think it's just a problem of probability. All you need to do is to increase your probability to succeed. Great article

Thanks for stopping by. A fun tip I can add on top of what you're already doing is to have some days (maybe once or two days a week) where you just say "to hell" with your ideal macros and have one big meal (or one big meal and one smaller meal) for the day. Unless you go out of your way to make that huge meal obscenely high in calories, you'll still come in under your calories for the day while being stuffed to boot. The leaner the protein in meals like that, the better from a calorie standpoint. Yo, Bill!
