When ordering your coffee in Costa
You get rudely distracted by the choc volcano brownie
Yet…
You seem to give yourself a telling off for even thinking about it
Let alone tucking into one (or three)
Just think about this way
If some lions came across the some food
^^^ let’s call them Mufasa and Simba
Do you really think that Mufasa would turn to Simba and say:
‘You know what Simba, I’m not really feeling like tucking in to all this food. I’m watching my waistline.”
“But why Mufasa? You can always do 40000000 burpees to help you burn the calories you’ll take in”
It just wouldn’t happen, right?
Because you and me are wired to eat.
And the food environment you live in to day thrives off of this
The fresh, heavenly smell of bread in the supermarkets
The sushi Bar in Waitrose..
It’s not your fault, it’s actually the result of years and years of evolution.
You are wired to go for fat and sugary, high calorie foods, so if they’re vending machines biscuits in the staff room, or on your kitchen side?
It’s gong to make it difficult whether you’re counting calories or not.
So if you’re beating yourself up for having ‘thoughts’ about going through a loaf of bread left out on the side
Finishing the packet of biscuits
And THEN the tub of ice cream
Actually give yourself a break.
But it’s not all doom and gloom
We know your environment plays a key role here
In fact, a recent study showed that:
* When Europeans (that’s us despite Brexit) move to North America we gain 7% of our body weight
* When North Americans move overseas to Europe they lose around 2% of their body weight
* When North Americans move to Asia…they lose over 4% of their body weight
Which just highlights how what you do isnt always based on rationale, conscious decisions, right?
and I know what you’re thinking…
“Well, I’m not moving to North America or Asia any time soon”
So here’s what you can do right now to lose up to 10lbs:
* Only eat from crockery
* Use smaller crockery
* Only eat when your sat down
* Don’t eat in front of the TV
* Tidy your kitchen so the only thing out is a fruit bowl
* Make sure the first thing you see when you open your fridge are veggies / salads / meats (you’re 3 times more likely to choose the first thing you see)
But you know this stuff already, right?
