Top 7 Ways to Deal with Food Temptation

Top 7 Ways to Deal with Food Temptation
March 20, 2018Guest PostGuest postHealthy eatingLifestyleslimnhappyways to avoid food temptations

 

Food is one of the biggest seductresses around us. Almost all of us have some sort of weakness when it comes to food and we often find ourselves in a situation where a torrent of guilt washes over us after finishing off an entire tub of ice cream or a whole 4-cheese pizza pie.

So how exactly do we curb our appetite and keep it that way? How do health fanatics do it? I won’t say it’s easy but here are some surefire ways to get you started on a healthier food-based lifestyle:

Bring some Appetite Suppressants in Your Diet

Appetite suppressants are food supplements or extracts that can help in reducing your appetite and help you feel fuller. One appetite suppressant that people have been swearing by is green tea. You probably know that green tea is a holy-grail substance for people who wish to lose weight. It is so well-revered because of its ability to increase your metabolism along with suppressing your appetite.

Along with green tea, coffee is also a potent appetite suppressant, along with spicy foods and water.

Eat Protein and Good Fats

Eating plenty of protein and fat help you feel fuller and this is why including a larger portion of these two substances in your diet is a great way to stop feeling hungry every so often. This characteristic is one of the reasons why diet fads like Ketosis, the Atkins Diet, and the Protein diet give such satisfying results.

Lay Off Excess Carbs

Carbs are your instant source of energy and they get digested by the body faster than any other food group. The excess carbs that your body does not need for energy are stored up as fat deposits and therefore you start feeling hungry after a short while.

Keep a Line of Substitutes Ready

Unfortunately, high-carb foods are some of the most-craved foods out there too. This is where it helps to have good self-control and pick a food that can kill your craving but not cause any harm. For example, if you are craving a soft, chewy, chocolate chip cookie, you can easily get rid of the craving by eating an apple since your body wants sugar.

Eat Lots of Fiber

High-fibre foods and fibre supplements are very helpful in keeping the temptation at bay. Fibre is not digested by your body and it stays in its original form in the body till it’s excreted out. This stops you from feeling hungry. High-fibre foods include fruit husks and vegetables like zucchini.

Embrace your Bed

We also feel tempted to eat when we aren’t getting enough sleep. So fix your routine and try to sleep at a decent time and get at least 8 hours in every night.

Try to Relieve the Stress

Stress eating is really common and we often fall prey to its wicked charms. So you might find yourself reaching for fewer calories if you start managing your stress by taking a break every so often or seeing a therapist.
