Are you always food focused?

Make it stand out

Thinking about the next meal while you are eating or within an hour after eating?

One reason could be that you aren’t allowing yourself to become full + satisfied during meals.

You’re trying to keep your meals as small as possible.

In turn you end up eating several super small meals, grabbing a bite of this and that…

Snacking all day long.

You are always thinking about food.

Making decisions about food.

Food. Is. A. Constant. Thought.

One easy way to road test if you’re falling into this category is to increase your food at your meal times.

You can also increase the quality of your food at meal times.

Example:

If your current lunch looks like a lean cuisine + then an hour later you’re hitting the candy drawer - you’re likely eating around 500 calories.

Switch it up to a more filling + quality lunch like, a Chicken burrito bowl:

Chicken

Black beans

Roasted sweet potato

Spinach

Guacamole

+ a side of dark chocolate.

This lunch would run you around 500 calories too + keep you fuller for longer….which means you aren’t thinking about or grabbing food in the next hour.

So while always eating small meals may seem like the way to successfully diet it could be a roadblock that’s holding you back.
