Overcoming Bad Eating Habits

Bad Eating Habits

1. If You Are Skipping Breakfast:

After a long night sleep our stomach wants breakfast as car wants petrol to get recharge  for doing work whole day but most of all neglect it easily when we have to rush for work in the mornings or get our kids ready for school. Doing so not only drains off your energy, but also makes it more likely that you will snack throughout the day.Breakfast is believed to be the most important meal of the day, but many people still seem to make a habit out of skipping it. Skipping breakfast also disrupts your metabolism, causing you to burn fewer calories.

Try to overcoming this bad habit and get start your day with a bowl of oatmeal, fruit or a healthy cereal.

2-If You Are a Mindless Muncher:

In a world of instant messages, “real time” updates and 24/7 Tweets, sitting down for a relaxing, uninterrupted meal is not always, or ever, possible. As a result we often eat in the car, while the TV is on or at our desk at work. Eating distracted makes it a lot easier to eat more. According to research,  watching T.V  people particularly prone to spaced-out eating. In fact, folks who eat while watching the T.V take in 20 to 60 percent more than if they are focused on their food.

To overcoming this bad eating habit eat mindfully. Don’t just go through the motions, actually plan and be conscious of your eating. Turn off the TV, radio and computer. Walk away from your desk at work. Even if it’s just for a few minutes, make mealtime about eating. Taste your food. Chew. Enjoy.

3-If You Are Eating In Stress:

Another bad eating habit that should be overcome is emotional eating or stress eating. This occurs when you are driven by certain emotions to eat even though you’re not hungry. Mostly people  munch on candy bars when they’re stressed about a deadline at work  indulge in a tub of ice cream when they are feeling depressed. If you’re like most people who are emotional eaters, then you probably reach for unhealthy junk food in order to cope with your emotions.

To get rid of this bad eating habit find ways to relax that don’t involve food. Go for a walk. Call a friend. Lose yourself in a good book. There are so many options. Making these choices a habit over mindlessly reaching for food after a bad day will go a long way in helping you control your weight.

4-If You Are Eating Late Night:

Eating too close to bedtime will also give you sleeping difficulty since your body will be busy digesting food. Having an occasional late night snack is fine but if you makes it as habit so you should try to overcome this bad eating habit. We usually don’t eat late night unless we are either totally by ourselves in which case nobody else knows what we are doing or if we are in a social situation where everyone is eating.

For the solution, after dinner make your kitchen off limits until the next morning. Another good tactic, brush your teeth immediately following dinner. When your teeth feel all nice and clean, you’ll be less likely to want to eat and lose that “minty fresh” feeling. If you still find yourself being drawn to the fridge after hours, go to bed because if you are sleeping, you can’t be eating.
