There are so many delicious foods that everyone loves to eat. Most people love to eat whatever they want (I do too!), that is where some issues can come into play. Luckily, there are a few simple foods that can be swapped out with healthier foods to start leading you to the healthier life you want to live.

1. Replace butter with canola oil or olive oil (Oil has less saturated fats.)

2. Replace white bread with whole wheat bread.

3. Try an English muffin instead of a bagel.

4. Try spiralized zucchini or cook with whole wheat noodles instead of regular pasta.

5. Swap out pita chips with fruits and vegetables.

6. Replace the bread you would use on a sandwich with healthy whole wheat tortillas to make it into a wrap.

7. Eat dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate. There are even dark chocolate M&M's!

8. Swap out white rice for brown rice.

9. Replace potato chips with corn tortilla chips.

10. Try fat-free pudding instead of ice cream.

11. Swap out orange juice with oranges.

12. Replace sour cream with plain non-fat greek yogurt.

13. Freeze a banana and make 2-ingredient "nice cream" instead of eating ice cream.

14. Use oil based salad dressing instead of creamier ones like ranch. Replace your ranch habits with balsamic vinaigrette or Italian dressing.

15. If you like fish, salmon is a great substitute for steaks!

It is okay to splurge every so often, but if you want to feel healthier try some of these great swaps. These suggestions will slowly help you start to lose weight. Starting to become a healthier person involves eating right and not eating a ton of junk food. I'm not saying to cut out all of the bad foods from your diet, but just simply replacing some of the foods you're eating will have a tremendous change in your lifestyle.

Start small and build up.
