Q&A: Lack of Momentum & Bouncing Back
I’m answering a handful of listener questions on this episode.
- Elizabeth, I’m a total mess. I feel out of control. I want to change but I’m continuing to make awful choices. I feel like crap but I don’t know how to stop. I don’t even know where to begin. Can you help?
- Calm down and slow your mind. Bring it back to this moment
- Track
- Consistently implement a fat loss breakfast
- I love going out with my friends and having a few (or more than a few) drinks. The problem is that the following day I feel awful and my cravings are out of control. Is this all in my head? Any advice you have would be great!
- This is almost entirely physiological
- Cravings are often a result of poor blood sugar/insulin management. Alcohol sends our blood sugar for a ride and the instability triggers hunger and cravings
- If you’re going to drink, invest time in pre-making the following day’s food. Make it & have it in the fridge so you take the guess work and need for willpower out of the following day
- I just don’t have time to eat healthy. My husband is traveling, my kids are involved in so many things, I work full time and I can’t focus enough to make this work. What do you recommend?
- Expect less from yourself related to food
- What are your big rocks or your non-negotiables?
- How can you make them easier?
- Mine are:
- Fat loss breakfast
- Sweat
- Sleep
- How can I manage my pre-menstrual cravings?
- Know your body
- Plan ahead
- Stay in control
- Increase protein
