In this episode, I discuss how to make decisions ahead of time, especially with food choices. Your primitive brain craves instant gratification, while your prefrontal cortex makes decisions in your best interest. Planning ahead engages the prefrontal cortex, helping you avoid impulsive choices. For example, it’s possible to NOT think, "This salad isn’t satisfying," and instead decide to think, "This salad provides necessary nutrients." This shift can help you feel more satisfied and improve your health. Use this strategy not just for what you eat but also for how you feel about it. Plan how you'll think and react to different situations to support your health goals. Check it out. Try it out. Let me know how it goes!
