Are You Making This Common Mistake?

Do you find yourself skipping meals often?

If you answered ‘yes’, I’m going to be blunt….

Don’t Skip Meals!

I see this quite often in my health coaching practice. It’s common for people to think that when they skip a meal, they are ‘saving’ calories.

What happens though is it backfires!

By mid afternoon or early evening, they’re starving, and then they feel like they have no ‘will power’.  Our body needs fuel in the form of food to function, so when it’s deprived, it screams out for what it needs – food!  Willpower is no match and then they end up feeling guilty.

Skipping meals sets you up for failure and feeling guilty.

Eat 3 meals a day and healthy snacks when needed.

You’ll notice you get through the day with more energy and when you plan your meals out during the day, you can make healthier choices.  It’s much easier to make unhealthy choices when you need to eat something now and you just grab the closest thing you can find.

Plan ahead and be sure to not skip meals and you’re sure to notice a difference in how you feel and will usually end up eating fewer calories during the day.

What can you do this week to be sure you don’t skip meals?
