Do you ever have something in the house that you can’t leave alone, or stop thinking about? That you get out of bed at night to go and eat? Becoming non-reactive to urges and cravings is a key skill to being able to lose weight lifelong, says Food Psychology Coach Laura Lloyd.
All my life, I thought I didn’t know how not to be hungry on a diet. I thought that was the key to weight loss, and the reason I kept failing at it. I thought I couldn’t handle hunger, says food psychology coach Laura Lloyd. Turns, out, it’s a feeling that comes and goes.
Trying to figure out the true ‘voice’ of your body’s hunger is about distinguishing it from other clamouring calls to eat, just as a penguin finds its mate by listening to the one call among many, says food psychology coach Laura Lloyd
