Nutrition & exercise

I think a lot of people fall into this 'trap' Re-defining a bad day as you say is a good step, but also a perception of the unhealthy food. Yes no doubt there are foods that arent going to be great for us but a little here and there isnt going to harm us Have you ever tried a 'treat pack' Im obsessed with Maoam sweeties (yes im a wee kid) i could easily eat a full bag regardless of what sort of day im having.....obv that isnt going to do me any good. So i have wee goody bags made up I pre-calculate the calories in each bag and that way if i want a treat or reach for the sweets i know im still in allowance. You could make up a movie night bundle idea, a can of beer, portion of sweets, pack of crisps....whatever it is you reach for. Eat it if you want it and know it will still fit within weekly allowance. The bigger step here is working on the emotional connection with food. And finding something else that makes you feel good when you are down. How about the next time you feel a bit 💩 do a quick 5 mins on the punch bag/martial arts/walk round the block or read a few chapters of a book first. Take time to stop and acknowledge that you aren't feeling great but try and think why rather than disguise it with food/drink etc

I can certainly give it a go. I'm probably more likely to hit the bag, or something else than planning the treat packs but I'll start there and see how we go and not be too hard on myself if I have a lapse. As long as its not all the time. Thank you 🙂👊🏻

I've stopped buying a lot of the crap and replaced it for snacks that are not as hight in calories so at least if I do binge it's on slightly less fattening stuff.

Feel free to send me a wee msg off app and we can look into it more
