Don't forget the simple "tricks" that can help with weight loss!
I have been struggling with evening and nighttime snacking over the past several weeks. I work 2 10-hr shifts a week, and especially in those days, I want to eat to help me relax. So naturally this has bumped me up in weight, along with other habits that I'm working on changing in order to maintain.
Last night, after I finished logging and eating what I had planned to eat, before I could get anything else, I drank a glass of water and then immediately brushed and flossed. That simple action made it so that, when I sat back down on the couch and watched a little more TV, and didn't have extra cravings. I usually brush and floss just before I get in bed, so I think it helped signal my brain to know that we were done eating for the night.
I'm hoping that getting into the habit of brushing my teeth as soon as I reach my calorie goal will help me overcome the nighttime snacking ritual!
Are there any little "tricks" or habit replacements that have helped you? What are some successful, positive habit changes that have helped you lose or maintain?
