Have you ever tried to follow a diet?
If you struggled yourself to stick to a healthy diet, you’re not alone. I mean not only losing weight but also keeping the healthy eating control.
I believe that at least once during the whole life, you thought to follow a diet for yourself or for doctors’ mandatory reporting obligations.
Today’s article will bring you this discussion, why is so hard to follow a diet and get good habits of eating.
I’m not a fat person, before getting married I was overweight, but now I’m in shape.
I really started out caring about my health for the diagnosis of high blood pressure, before it, I did exercise but didn’t pay attention to so much what kind of food I put in my mouth.
In my family history, there are diabetes and high blood pressure issues. So, if I want to get healthy for a long period of time and have the quality of life I should care about myself as soon as possible.
In fact, I already have high blood pressure, since when I was 29 years old. Now I do try to avoid diabetes “by hook or by crook”.
I’ve noticed that sometimes is difficult to stick to a nutritious diet. I feel upset because sometimes I can’t control myself of eating refined carbohydrates like bread and cake (especially at the weekend, as a bad habit). I also know the problem is the amount of it, in other words, overconsumption, but I feel frustrated when I can’t avoid to put it in my mouth.
Searching on the internet about it, I could find some interesting reasons why:
- Scientist researches found that processed foods, high fat, high sugar can be addictive as a drug.
- Another interesting point is when you don’t sleep well your craving for junk food increases.
- Margaret Churchill wrote an amazing article about conscious eating. She says,
Listen carefully to your “inner dialogue.
Before reading the Margaret Churchill article, I thought that I could have some problem because of the overthinking about food. My determination for eating healthy meals, my frustration when I can’t resist the temptation sometimes. But now, I’m relieved. I’m on the right path.
So what do I do to keep the diet saved?
- To plan my week meal
- To cook my own food and snacks
- To allow myself eating sometimes that I really like during the weekend
