“5 blocks of chocolate” method ↓

This method can be helpful if you feel “out of control” when you have certain foods in the house, for example, you never allow yourself to buy chocolate, then when you do you end up eating the whole block in a day...

This often happens because
(1) we don’t allow ourselves to have the food so then
(2) when we do we get too excited and overdo it
OR we feel guilty for eating something we said we wouldn’t and try to “get rid of it” by eating it all.

So, if you’re in this predicament, what you’re doing to do is:
★ Buy “5 blocks of chocolate” (or a seemingly “unlimited” amount
of the food you struggle with
★ Every time you finish one block of chocolate, replace it so that
you’ve always got 5 blocks

This helps to remove the novelty of the food and allows your brain to realise it’s not “special” and you can eat it whenever you like, which then gives you back control in DECIDING when you feel like eating it.

For the first little while you may eat a whole block in a day, and that is TOTALLY OKAY - it’s part of the process - BUT after a little while you’ll get used to having chocolate in the house and forget it’s even there.

Pair this strategy with eating balanced meals and practicing mindful eating and it can be life changing 🫶🏼

Also just a note that not everything is for everyone, this strategy may not work for dopamine-seeking eating, but there are plenty of other strategies that can 🩷

+ you need double (even TRIPLE) that amount when you’re active

carbs are your body’s preferred energy source, especially for your brain and nervous system. even at rest, your body is constantly using glucose to fuel basic processes like breathing, circulation, temperature regulation and thinking.

on average, that minimum works out to roughly 130g of carbohydrate per day just to cover BASELINE needs of keeping your brain ticking over (ie. literally just lying there). once you add movement, stress and simply existing as a human, most people need double or triple this to perform optimally.

carbs aren’t just about energy either. eating enough helps support mood, concentration, hormones, performance, recovery and overall day to day functioning.

so if you’ve been feeling flat, foggy, irritable or low on energy, make sure you’re adding a good source of high fibre carbs to all of your meals - it might just make a difference :)

I saw this quote the other week and it’s so true - you can’t do everything all at once

sometimes less really is more; life can feel sooooo good when we prioritise rest, manage stress, move our body in ways that feel good and eat regularly without rigid restrictions 🫶🏼

give yourself some grace today x
