Listen "Episode 42 - Unpacking emotional eating and how to deal with it."
Episode Synopsis
Many of my accountability coaching clients have trouble with emotional eating and fall into the trap of using food to manage 'unbearable feelings', quell boredom or just generally deal with stress.
This episode explores some of the causes of emotional eating and some strategies for dealing with it.
!3 strategies for managing emotional eating:
Keep a food / mood dairy
Tame your stress
Check-in with your hunger – is it thirst or is it that you are thinking about food?
Get support – call a friend, join a support group, let me help you…
Fight boredom - Instead of snacking when you're not hungry, distract yourself and substitute a healthier behaviour.
Take away temptation – don’t have the foods in the house that tempt you…
Don’t deprive yourself – don’t limit calories too much, keep the balance of food right, eat large amounts of healthy food
Snack on healthy things
Learn from your setbacks
Move your body
Schedule your meals
Banish distractions like TV
Positive self talk
Enjoy, keep the feedback coming and let me know what you want to know more about..
