Break The Chain of HAZARDOUS Eating!

We've all been there. RAVENOUS at lunch because we skipped breakfast. You think: "I saved up all these calories at breakfast, I can eat whatever I want now!" WRONG. Starvation mode will not get you lean and it will make you cranky! Instead, opt for these solutions that lead us to hap hazard eating.


TRIGGER: Skipping meals!
SOLUTION: 1 TBSP. Peanut Butter.
*Just one TBSP. of "any" organic peanut butter cuts the hunger instantly, and you have 90 calories under your belt.


TRIGGER: Job interview, First Date, Public Speaking...aka. Nerves!
SOLUTION: Keep your mind/hands busy. 
*Catch up with a friend. If you can't talk on the phone, write a nice email. Listen to music that reminds you of a happy time. Read something interesting on the internet. Think of something in the near future you're excited for! Basically do things that will readjust your focus to something stress-free.


TRIGGER: Parties!
SOLUTION: Don't go hungry.
*If you can have a meal before you get to the party, you will be less apt to indulge at the party. Can you take 1 bite of the cake? Dip 5 chips in salsa? If there's no end to your indulgence once these treats hit your lips, than do as Frank the Tank tried to do in Old School and just eliminate it completely("once it hits your lips!"...do you want to end up streaking too??) 


** JUST REMEMBER, THE BEST SOLUTION BEFORE DIVING IN TO THE CAKE HEAD FIRST, IS TO THINK OF HOW YOU'LL FEEL AFTER YOU'RE FINISHED. TAKE A DEEP BREATH. THEN TAKE ANOTHER, AND STEP AWAY FROM THE CUPCAKE**
