\"\ud83c\udf55\"Depriving yourself of your favourite foods (or even entire food groups) is a sure-fire way to attach guilt and\/or shame around food, spark those dreaded ‘fuck it’ moments, binge eat, and nullify the hard work you’ve produced in the gym…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\ud83d\udeab\"Worse yet, labelling foods as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ creates an environment where one will impose self-judgement on themselves for eating certain foods or engaging in <\/a>certain eating behaviours, creating an unhealthy relationship with both food and exercise..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attaching judgment\"\ud83d\udc69\u200d\u2696\ufe0f\" and depriving yourself of specific foods or food groups in this way is simply unhealthy, unrealistic & unsustainable, and often leads to either:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-succumbing to the ‘scarcity mindset’ (an environment like a social event where the presence of foods that you crave causes you to behave like a frantic squirrel \"\ud83d\udc3f\ufe0f\"before winter, because your brain knows it’s about to be deprived of those very foods.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-resorting to comfort food during situations of emotional vulnerability\"\ud83e\udd75\" (“I’ve had a hard week, I deserve a break”) where binging, snacking or grazing on foods you crave is the fastest, most rapid & reliable way for you to numb negative feelings..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I propose a more realistic, sustainable & enjoyable approach…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be sure to include some of your favourite ultra-processed foods (you know the ones I mean… \"\ud83c\udf55\"\"\ud83c\udf69\"\"\ud83c\udf54\") into whatever fat-loss strategy you adopt… So you can maintain your sanity AND enjoy the process (which is a pre-requisite for consistency.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Pre-plan most of the meals and snacks you intend to eat throughout the week (consisting of wholesome, minimally processed foods \"\ud83e\udd51\"\"\ud83e\udd56\"\"\ud83e\udd69\"), but also allow yourself a handful (of sensibly portioned) unplanned meals or snacks throughout the week, consisting of foods that you eat to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Keep a \"\ud83d\udcd6\"journal of ALL the meals & snacks you consume throughout each day…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-if the meal or snack was unplanned, was it among the \"\ud83d\udd90\ufe0f\"handful of meals that you had allocated yourself to enjoy with friends & family (or by yourself) OR were you eating due to compulsion?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-if it was compulsive eating, then how were you feeling in that moment? Tired, stressed, frustrated, bored, depressed? Maybe even lonely or inadequate?\"\ud83e\udd12\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-becoming \"\ud83d\udc40\"‘The Watcher’ of your emotional patterns gives you the first step in solving your problems (identifying them!) which goes a LONG WAY to self mastery and achieving those body, health & fitness goals!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
