Why can't we start eating right in any way and how to deal with it

Quitting junk food is just as hard as quitting smoking, because it's not just our taste preferences. For those who like to eat delicious and a lot, food is almost the whole universe. We eat when we're bored. We eat when we're sad. We eat to reward ourselves for something. We eat love sufferings with chocolate ice cream — there may be a million reasons, but salvation is one ... and it smells so delicious!

So it turns out that no matter how hard we try to start eating right, after a few days there is still a breakdown. Because there are a lot of bindings, and in order to get rid of them, we need to come up with something more useful instead.

Leo believes that it is so difficult for us to get rid of the habit of eating tasty and a lot because it replaces a huge number of needs for us. And to abandon it right away means that we simply won't know how to react and what to do if one of the triggers is triggered.

Reasons

  • We eat when we are stressed. And if we refuse this, then how will we cope with stressful situations? We need to find new, healthier options.
  • We eat when we are sad or depressed. How can you learn to deal with these unpleasant emotions in a healthier way?
  • We allow ourselves something delicious as a reward. How will we encourage ourselves if we cancel this sweet gingerbread?
  • We eat in order to maintain communication. These are our meetings with friends in cafes and restaurants, and it's even scary to remember about family dinners. How can we replace this option of communicating with friends and how can we explain to mom that this pie is already superfluous?!
  • We eat when we're bored. What else can you do for yourself besides eating donuts?
  • We eat when we're angry. This emotion is close to stress, so eating it with something delicious is a common thing.
  • We eat for pleasure, rewarding ourselves and our taste buds with a variety of flavors.
  • We eat... for love. As a child, our mothers could pamper us with something delicious, expressing their love in this way. Our loved ones pamper us with romantic dinners. We know that love can be delicious and we like it. What can replace its expression?

What can be replaced?

We all need love, rewards, pleasure and rewards. But what will we get in all the situations listed above if we remove the food? The habit of eating everything is firmly entrenched, and if you do not find a suitable, but healthier replacement for it, it will not be easy to get rid of excess weight.

Everyone should find their own method that really helps to cope with difficult emotions and at the same time replaces the desire to eat all this with something tasty and not very useful. Leo has suggested his options and they may help you at least get started.

Exercises. A great way to deal with anger, boredom and stress. Something didn't work out? A hard day's work? Run a circle around the area or go to the gym — not only drive away all unpleasant emotions, but also clear your head and get yourself in great shape. You look, and after the reporting period or the delivery of the project, you not only lost weight, but also the cubes of the press began to look through ;)

Meditation. It also helps to cope with stress and anger, as well as learn to control your emotions.

Tea. Delicious tea can be both a reward, and a pleasure, and a way to communicate with people, and get rid of stress (especially chamomile or fragrant mint).

People. Learn to get pleasure from communicating with your loved ones and pleasant people. If someone is willing to listen to you, then communication will also be a relief from stress.

Cleaning. I clean up best and fastest when I'm angry. In this state, everything turns out much faster and there is no trace of doubts like "should I leave this pot, and suddenly it will come in handy (it's nothing that it's been standing for two years and still won't come in handy)". As a result, the apartment was cleaned, and negative emotions got rid of.

Privacy. Instead of running to the store for another cake, it's better to sit in a quiet and secluded place and analyze why you feel these emotions, and not others? Why are you reacting like this? And loneliness can also be a reward if you are with a large and noisy family almost all the time. Family and children are wonderful, but sometimes we all need to be alone with ourselves.

Well, then it's up to you. Because only you will be able to find the right substitute for an appetizing pizza or a delicious piece of cake that will really work.
