In this three part series I'm providing you with emotional eating toolkit.
Evaluating your hunger is one of the best tools and most helpful goals you can achieve. Here is the associated PDF to support you in this episode: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Uv3MHw-nljYoCX32LgqdPgv6AbVe4NRA/view?usp=sharing
Many people aren’t aware of:
😋 when they are hungry
🤗when they approach different levels of satiety
🤤how specific meals and food items support them throughout the day
I like utilizing this 1-5 scale, also represented by moons with in turn represent the capacity of your stomach. Get it? You can define each level however you want to - this is just how I did it. You should have your own scale here.
It will be extremely helpful for you to know:
• that if you eat a meal and you only get yourself to a satiety level of 1-2 you’ll likely will be hungry soon after, possibly hangry, low energy, scavenging for food or possibly binge eating. Solution = eat more at certain meals
• when you eat a meal that’s provided to you from a restaurant or at home - you may feel satiated only half way through and eating more may be unnecessary for your goals and may not make you feel good. Solution = stop eating sooner to feel good.
• you’re looking to build muscle and you realize you may need to eat more to achieve your goals but unsure of how how to do it - the more you can feel the moments you need to push beyond satiety can be helpful.
• the list could go on...
Challenge for you: take three days and write down your food choices and next to them how you felt (scale of 1-5) before and after. If finding a calorie deficit is supportive of your goals, isolate those areas where you may be able to sit lower on the satiety scale without sacrificing control.
It would mean the world to me if you followed and shared this episode. If you could also take seven seconds to give the show a 5 star rating, it would help and support others to make the sustainable changes in their life that can impact them beyond measure.
Always appreciate you - Ryan
