27: 5 ‘Cravings Culprits’ and How to Overcome Them
As promised last week, today’s episode is all about cravings and how we can overcome them not just during the COVID-19 pandemic, but at any point in our lives as we deal with the daily stress and anxiety that comes our way. As we are all too aware, cravings are a fact of life, so today we’ll look at understanding the 5 main ‘cravings culprits’ while also exploring some measures you can implement to manage them.
Addictive foods, dehydration, low protein foods, stress, and emotional eating are five of the main culprits, and they can be overcome if you first understand them and then counter with appropriate and effective strategies. You need to know that today’s show is not at all about shaming anyone or generating feelings of guilt, but rather it is meant to support you in making wise decisions, creating and maintaining good habits, and feeling your best as you continue your forward momentum. I can tell you that this is a topic which has come up an awful lot lately given our current circumstances, and I can assure you that the information and advice offered here today is as timeless as it is valuable.
Again, I know things are uncertain out there, and because of that I’m opening up enrollment for my membership community early. Now is the time to be in community with like-minded women, gain support as you navigate these challenging times and be reminded to continue to create goals for right now and the future. Email me to learn more about the membership community at [email protected] or go to www.kellytravis.net/thrive and submit your email address there. As always, please also let me know what you take away from this episode, and share with me your plan of action based upon what you have learned.
The Finer Details of This Episode:
- Dealing with the addictive nature of many unhealthy foods
- Staying hydrated
- Getting a good balance of fats, proteins, and fiber in your diet
- Managing stress in your life
- Emotional eating

Quotes:
“We spend a lot of time and energy resisting cravings and that, kind of, just takes up more space.”
“It’s important for you to acknowledge that you’re not a weak person who lacks willpower.”
“When we are dehydrated we feel hungry because many of the symptoms are similar to hunger…sometimes we confuse the two.”
“We’re just not getting enough of nutrient-dense meals.”
“When we’re stressed, our bodies pull from our energy, and when those reserves dip low, we’re programmed to crave energy to refill it.”
“Emotional eating creates an constant cycle of cravings that won’t end until we tackle the cause.”
