Every living creature feels hungry and the all mighty has created food for all, But there is a very obvious difference in needing food and wanting food. We need food to be alive, to meet our daily calorie requirements but we want food out of triggers which could be emotional, social or situational. Yes, contrary to our belief there are many people who suffer from eating trigger problems. Some people are eager to eat when the people around them are eating; some eat to relieve themselves of some pain or tension. But whatever the cause is, it results in significant and unhealthy weight gain.
Social eating triggers are a sort of comfort foods that we take bounded by the cosmos and if on the other side you are an emotional eater then you are solely responsible for stopping yourself. Generally the foods that we refer to as the comfort foods and at the reach of our palms are over laden with oil and spices, which adds up a great taste with a huge fat on your body. Instead if you start taking foods rich in fiber or whole grain stuffs then they will make your stomach full fast but won't add up extra fat. But when snacks are concerned, such as chips or candy, it seems like we can munch for hours upon hours. That is why smart snacking style and habit is the key to control your emotional eating trigger.
Change your immediate environment:
The best way to achieve a smart snacking style is to load your kitchen with all the easy to eat healthy foods only. So, the next time you go shopping, carry all nutritional food home which are easy to eat, make and digest as when junky foods are nowhere to be found half of the temptation is already gone and you have to move on to something that you actually do have at home. Availability of unhealthy snacks is the root of all weight gain evils.
Once you know the factors that really trigger you, you can chalk out how to deal with them. For example, you might keep the healthier snacks, such as popcorn, on hand and to cut short with that dirty fat but at the same time enjoying munching together. If you realize that every time while going to office you stop at the before lane bakery to get a pack of cookies or pastries then you start taking another route to job which will be safer to your health.
Now it's solely your task to control and manage your behavior but here are some guidelines like:
- Cosmos & Condition: When you do two or more things simultaneously--like watching TV and snacking you can correlate them together so to avoid snacking you have to avoid watching much TV also.
- Laziness Control: Make your environment as prompting as possible towards a good health for e.g., keep your washroom slippers or sneakers near your front door so that when you get up next morning you go to a morning walk for sure.
- Compensation: Instead of trying to completely change the behavior that's contributing to your weight problem you can change your daily planning or make a new and healthier mood.
