Solution Survival Tips
It's hard to kick some of the conditional responses we have formed to food. It can often seem like your only comfort in bad times. Here are some ways to incorporate healthy eating into your life:
1. Make Every Bite Count
Studies show it takes the human brain 20 minutes to register satiety. That means the slower you eat, the less food you require to feel full. Fill up first on foods that require time to chew or sip and you'll be less likely to overindulge on subsequent, more-fattening foods.
2. Weigh the Damage
Invest in a scale and you could help prevent unmeasured portions from turning into unwanted pounds. Use it for a month or two until you get used to the smaller portion habit.
3. A Taste Will Do It
Instead of denying the whole thing – take a nibble or two and that's it. Savor the taste.
4. Avoid Midnight Snack Attacks
5. Enjoy Breakfast
It really is the most important meal of the day. In a hurry? Grab a protein shake – and don't forget your Get Your Grapefruit capsule.
6. Think Before You Bite
How quickly we forget about the chips and dip we wolf down in front of the TV or the buttered popcorn we crunch at the movies. Substitute low fat snacks (if you must snack) such as popcorn rice cakes. Be aware of each bite and you are less likely to keep eating when your brain tries to signal ‘full'.
7. Brush Your Teeth or Gargle
If the urge to snack attacks, before you bite in, brush your teeth. It may temporarily postpone the craving – who wants to ruin a fresh, clean mouth with more food.
8. Sabotage Cravings
You're absolutely dying for a piece of cake and if you don't have it right now you'll go crazy. I don't think so. Try taking a brisk walk or some aerobic exercise. This tends to dull the appetite until the craving passes.
9. Don't Skip Meals
Eat something healthy every 3 hours: an apple, some baby carrots, and fat-free yogurt.
10. Never Shop or Party Hungry
If you grocery shop when you are hungry, you are more likely to load up with junk food or binge snack. Always have a snack before heading out to an event – nothing will betray you faster than an empty stomach in a place full of temptations.
