EP14: How to CRUSH Your Cravings

Are you tempted to indulge in your late-night cravings? Are you someone who constantly snacks throughout the day, even if you're not actually hungry? If you have big fitness goals but often end up sitting on the couch at night satisfying your food cravings, then this episode is for you.

Christina gives tips on how to curb cravings before they arise so you can break the vicious cycle of giving into them and no longer have your goals hampered by your eating habits.

In this podcast episode, Christina shares:

• How to overcome your habit of cravings or binge eating
• Some tips to help you reduce your cravings:
• Find out what foods to eat to ensure your body gets the right amount of nutrients.
• Eat higher volume meals — plan your meals so that you can eat as much food as possible while staying within your macro and calorie target.
• Time your meals properly — regularly feeding yourself can reduce hunger.
• Just resist the cravings — you are so much stronger than your excuses.
• Remove artificial things from your diet — focus on whole, unprocessed foods
• Have chewing gum in moderation to keep your mouth busy and take your mind off of food
• Brush your teeth after you eat — having minty toothpaste taste in your mouth eliminates the desire to eat

Memorable Quotes:

"Every time we reinforce a habit, by doing it repetitively, it becomes more and more ingrained into who we are."

"Excuses are only real if you let them be."

"Reframe every craving that you encounter into an opportunity to challenge yourself and to take one more step towards your goals."

"Just because you've never done something in the past does not mean that you can't do it in the future and does not mean that you are not capable of doing it."
