Eating habits

The big three

Be aware that the three main causes of eating when we are not hungry are:

  1. Habit
  2. Boredom
  3. Stress

1. Habit

  • Change a bad habit for a good habit
  • Stop and think about why you do this particular counterproductive habit

2. Boredom

  • Take up a hobby that you will really enjoy
  • Do something stimulating
  • Do something active
  • Pamper yourself – but not with food or drink

3. Stress

  • Try to eliminate the source of the stress
  • Recognise that this is stress and put in place measures to combat it
  • Take a brisk walk
  • Practice deep breathing and relaxation techniques regularly
  • Get more sleep and plan for this
  • Keep your vitamin and mineral status high

Top Tips
  • Cut out the processed foods
    Fresh food cooked at home will always be higher in nutrients than a ready meal or pre-processed mashed potato!
  • Drink more water
    You’ve heard it before, but remember you are more than 50% water and drying out isn’t good for you.
  • A little exercise
    30 minutes of moderate exercise each day is all you really need – try changing a habit like walking instead of driving to work, you’ll feel the difference pretty quickly.
