We all suffer from cravings throughout the day, those horrible desires to eat what you like so much! Well, 40% of the time we do it, we don’t do it because of hunger. We only think about the food we want and psychologically it appears in your mind, producing that feeling of desire.
1 DON’T SKIP MEALS
It is wrong to skip any meal of the day. In reality, if you skip a meal you will starve and therefore have more options to not control yourself when you start eating. It is advisable not to spend more than 4 hours without eating anything.
2 STAY HYDRATED
This is one of the keys when it comes to controlling appetite. When you feel very hungry, pour yourself a large glass of water and you will see how your hunger reduces. Water keeps you hydrated and eliminates toxins that may be in your body. So keep it hydrated.
3 EAT SALADS
Take advantage of this time of year when we don’t want to eat hot food so much to eat a mixture of lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, celery, and cucumber in a large salad, adding a little protein to make it complete. A salad with these characteristics keeps you satisfied for more than an hour so it will control your appetite.
4 SNACKS BUT HEALTHY
We all like to snack and it is okay to do so as long as we can eat something healthy and clean for the body. Walnuts, peanuts, and pistachios are perfect. Eating these types of nuts will reduce current hunger and keep you full until the next meal.
5 EAT SLOW
You’re the kind of person who eats like he’s in a race. Well, you should know that your brain needs at least 20 minutes to get the message to your stomach. If you eat slowly, the brain has the opportunity to “warn” the stomach and thus reduce the feeling of overeating. You know, eat slowly!
6 EAT FRUITS
Fruits have a lot of sugar, but they are a healthy source of sugar. It breaks down much faster and keeps you satisfied longer.
