Constant thoughts about how to eat this, visit many people. Some people think about food because they are on a rigid diet, when the body simply does not have enough nutrients from food, and signals are sent to the brain that it is time to recharge. Other people think about food even when they are full. In this case, there are already psychological reasons. For example, food is a person's only means of relieving tension, stress, or having fun.
Instructions
Step 1
Many women and men, in an effort to quickly lose extra pounds, go on diets that promise quick results. Weight loss is often achieved by excluding certain food groups from the diet, severely limiting calorie intake. With a sharp transition from one type of nutrition to another, the body begins to experience stress, and in some cases, a lack of nutrients and elements. A person begins to constantly experience hunger, all his thoughts are only about food. To avoid this, it is better to choose diets in which there is no sharp restriction on some foods. Meals should be varied and complete, then you will think less about food.
Step 2
It is better to eat 5-6 times a day, but not in large portions. So you will not have time to get hungry, which means that thoughts about food will not be very intrusive. If there is still a feeling of hunger between meals, it is better to satisfy it with an apple, a handful of nuts or a glass of kefir. You can also drink a glass of water, as people often confuse hunger and thirst.
Step 3
If you are full, but thoughts about food do not cease to haunt you, then perhaps it is a psychological reason. Many foods contain substances that help fight stress, nervousness, and tension. Sugary foods are especially commonly used as antidepressants. They contain a lot of sugar, which, when ingested, leads to an increase in mood. And if a person has any problems, then he tries to raise him by eating a chocolate bar or candy. If stressful situations happen often, and each of them seizes, then gradually a food addiction is formed in a person. Food becomes the only way for him to get his portion of joy and comfort. To stop thinking about food, you need to change your attitude towards it. Find other ways to deal with stress and failure. For example, instead of sitting down at the table, it is better to go and take a walk. Fresh air is good for relieving nervous tension, fills the body with oxygen, and increases the level of vitality. Or find yourself a hobby that will take up all your free time.
Step 4
Helps to cope with thoughts about food and increase physical activity. During sports, dancing, substances that increase mood are produced. In addition, when doing exercises, all thoughts are focused on how to do them correctly, rather than on eating. And the first changes in your physical form will be an excellent stimulus for further sports. Gradually, you will forget the time when your main desire was to eat a hamburger or a chocolate bar.
