Listen Later

It is important to understand what triggers your appetite and suppresses it. A lot of my new clients typically ask and wonder why they can’t seem to stop eating. I’ve prepared a great list that will help you to understand your triggers, what kind of food can best help not just your weight loss but also your health in general, and a very important daily activity that you might not be doing enough of.

Always remember that the secret to losing weight is not just what goes into your stomach but what also goes on your brain. There are a lot of other factors that could be impeding your weight loss without realizing it.

  •   [1:38] Studies show that those who eat the most fiber, tend to have healthier body weight. One study found that people who ate no differently except for increasing their fiber intake lost as much weight as those who went on a rigid, low-fat diet.
  •   [2:34] Most people are deficient in fiber, getting less than half of the 25-30grams that we should get on a daily basis for overall health and weight control.
  •   [3:46] Emotional eating or binge eating allows us to remove discomfort and provides a fleeting sense of satisfaction and pleasure when you’re feeling something you just don’t want to feel.
  •   [4:44] With emotional eating, you’re more likely to keep eating even if you’re full. When you satisfy physical hunger, on the other hand, you’re able to stop when you’re full. 
  •   [6:53] Getting to the root cause is the only way to make lasting change to either lose or maintain weight. 
  •   [7:17] It contains an abundance of vitamins and minerals. It can improve from weight loss to stress management and also provides a natural source of energy. This tea is known for its powerful thermogenic effect. It fires up your calorie-burning mechanism. 
  •   [8:58] Being overweight or obese is a double-edged sword. Not only does obesity contribute to sleep problems, sleep problems contribute to obesity. 
  •   [12:30] Your ability to make healthy decisions is severely reduced when you lack sleep.
  •   [14:34] When you sit down to eat you should be hungry but not ravenous as this will cause you to overeat. So try eating some high fiber, high protein snacks in between meals.
