We talk through food FOMO and why we eat just to avoid feeling left out, even when we are not hungry. We share a simple filter to spot the difference between a treat you truly want and a bite you will regret later.
• how fear of missing out shifts from events to eating
• scarcity cues that trigger urgency and impulse choices
• the “trash can effect” and why groups change what we order
• vacation and holiday eating tied to memories not hunger
• anticipatory regret and “permission thinking” that pushes overeating
• the real cost of food FOMO: stuffed, dissatisfied, regretful self-talk
• a four-question FOMO filter to decide intentionally
• replacing FOMO with JOMO by choosing on purpose
you better join us for walk and talk or sit and talk
