How Emotional Eating Hampers Your Weight Loss Part 2
October 30, 2011
This second part of the article series on emotional eating will explain on the steps that you can take to lessen or completely eliminate emotional eating in your life. Although negative emotions can trigger emotional eating, you can take steps to control cravings and renew your effort at weight loss.
* Keep a food diary. Write down what you eat, how much you eat, when you eat, how you’re feeling when you eat and how hungry you are. Over time, you may see patterns emerge that reveal the connection between mood and food.
* Get support. You’re more likely to give in to emotional eating if you lack a good support network. Lean on family and friends or consider joining a support group. It won’t really have to be a professional support group, as long as you are accountable to each other to remain steadfast in your fitness goals.
* Struggle with boredom without food. Haven’t you noticed that when there is an empty time, you suddenly feel the urge to get some snack foods just to “kill the time”? Create other distractions for yourself such as surfing the internet, calling a friend, listening to music or simply watching television.
* Control temptation. The key to accomplishing this is not to buy the comfort foods when you are in the grocery store. Since we begin giving into temptation when we our vision is stimulated, stick the the list of “healthy foods’ that are in your grocery list. Then you won’t see the unhealthy and tempting foods.
* Don’t push yourself too much. Those who really want to lose those stubborn excess pounds need to understand that although limiting on the caloric intake is helpful, you should sometimes give yourself some food treats, or else you will increase the propensity of you, giving in to your emotional eating tendencies. Remember to keep this updated in your food diary.
