Quick tip for late night snacking…

Can impact our pre-frontal cortex (which allows us to make better informed more intelligent decisions about what and why we do what we do aka aligning today’s actions with how you want to look and feel in the future).
The result of this?
You perceive foods as more rewarding than they actually are
you feel less motivated…
And it’s harder to do the things you know you need to do.
Now, the good news is that meditation / nap / time out can literally reverse this.
But I get that is not always possible.
So what could help?
Well, I like actionable strategies you can do TODAY.
So here are two things that might help you:
- If you snack late at night…delay your breakfast, lunch and evening meal so you eat later
- If your snacking issues are mid afternoon, bring your evening meal earlier or PLAN in small meal / snack for that mid afternoon time.
I speak more in depth about these here:
