I live a relatively active life but I struggle with eating too much. I feel like there is no diminishing returns when I eat something. Each chip tastes just as good as the last one. So I will be craving food but know it’s not healthy for me to eat more. I’m trying to find ways to ignore that feeling or dismiss it.
Are there any tips or methods you use to help with that? Impulse control is the hardest thing to work on sometimes.
Stop smoking pot ;)
I tend to forget eating due to my adhd. With the years Ive gotten quite good at turning on tunnel vision and working through lunch. Do that ofen enough and a box of cheetos is not a problem. X]
Drink a glass of water during your meals. And make sure you eat enough proteins. High protein diets are very effective.
If you’re craving chips, your body is telling you you need carbs. So get them from healthy sources of food instead. If you’re craving something like cheese or meat, your body is telling you you need proteins, so make sure you get them from healthy sources of food as well.
Avoid high carb food that doesn’t have a lot of nutrients. You will probably still feel hungry afterwards. Go for healthy food that makes you feel full and gives your body a good amount of nutrients.
And remember that healthy food can taste just as good. :)
Use a small plate for your meals.
chew longer
