RETRAIN YOUR BRAIN TO BOOST WEIGHT LOSS
“Working out your trigger points for overeating, snacking or for avoiding exercise can help you take control of your health,“ says Christianne.
Trigger points can be anything that makes you eat without actually being hungry or that puts you off exercise and naturally Christmas is packed with them! See which ones apply to you below...
I eat when I'm...
Stressed, lonely , hungover, depressed, nervous, tired, bored
I avoid exercise when I'm...
Too tired, feeling down, too busy , under pressure to do something else
Fix it:
Once you realise your trigger points you can tune into them. When you feel like tucking into party nibbles or festive leftovers you can ask yourself: Am I actually hungry ` , or just responding to a trigger?' If you know your trigger point you can confront the root cause and come up with strategies to deal with it. For instance, if your trigger is bore dom, go for a walk instead or find a good book. If you're stressed, a hot bath or soothing music can help.
Understanding what causes you to ditch the diet or dodge exercise and having tools to counter them is incredibly empowering. A little bit of self awareness puts you in control.
