Answer to Question 1

No time to cook: You could try cooking a few meals on the weekend and then freezing them into smaller portions for easy reheating during the week. There are also many healthy options for meals that serve one person. Just check the labels to make sure that the meal does not supply too many calories, sugar, salt, or fat.
Not a high priority: You could ask any healthcare provider what chronic diseases could be caused by a poor diet. You could also talk with people who have these conditions to see how their quality of life has been impacted.
Crave fast food and sweets: It may work well to allow yourself a small serving of fast food or sweets each day. If you eliminate these foods all together, you will crave them. You can also make small, simple substitutions of a piece of fruit for sweets or pretzels or some other lower-fat food for potato chips.
Too little money: You should go to the grocery store and compare the price of produce (fruits and vegetables) with processed or snack foods. You may only want to buy a couple of pieces of fruit at a time so that you will eat them before they spoil. You could also try growing fruits or vegetables in your own garden or as part of a community garden.
Take vitamins instead: You could try eating a piece of fruit or a vegetable daily and see how you feel over time as compared with taking a supplement with coffee or some other beverage. Your body will absorb nutrients much more efficiently from foods than from supplements.
