Emotional eating is using food to make yourself feel better, to fill emotional needs rather than your stomach.

Emotional eating doesn't fix the problem, it actually makes you feel worse, and guilty for overeating.

Before you give in to a craving, take 5, pause for a moment and reflect, that way you give yourself the opportunity to make a different decision.

Ask yourself :
- Can I put off eating for 5 minutes?
- while you're waiting check in with yourself.

Learn to accept your feelings even the bad ones.

What you can do is :
▪️Identify your emotional eating triggers(stress, stuffing emotions, boredom, feeling of emptiness, social influence, a sort of reward...)

▪️Find other ways to feed your feelings:
-If you're depressed or lonely, call someone that always makes you feel better

-if you're anxious, try dancing to your favorite song, squeezing a stress ball, or taking a brisk walk.

-if you're exhausted, treat yourself with a hot cup of tea, take a bath, light some scented candles, or wrap yourself in a warm blanket.

-if you're bored, read a good book, watch a comedy show, explore the outdoors, or turn to an activity that you enjoy (playing the guitar, drawing...)

▪️Make daily exercise a priority
▪️Make time for relaxation
▪️Connect with others
▪️Aim for 8 hours of sleep every night.

Eating a protein rich breakfast promotes weight loss by making you feel full for a longer period of time and reduces weight gain by regulating satiety, appetite hormones and subsequent food intake, because you'll snack less throughout the day.

As for breakfast skipping, it has been associated with overeating, weight gain and obesity, given that you'll be snacking a lot more and craving more high caloric foods.

That is why you shouldn't skip your breakfast 💕
It's the most important meal of the day, fuels you and fills you with energy ⚡

Examples of protein rich foods for breakfast: eggs, turkey, dairy, cottage cheese.

Falafel:
✔️Falafel is a dish of Middle Eastern origin that’s especially popular among vegetarians and vegans🌱
✔️They are deep fried balls – or fritters – made from ground chickpeas and/or fava beans seasoned with onion, parsley, cumin and coriander.

The falafel balls are stuffed in a pita or wrapped in a flatbread and topped with tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber, pickled vegetables, hot sauce and tahini sauce.

✔️Falafel is high in many micronutrients and a good source of fiber and protein.

As such, it:
-may help curb your appetite,
- support healthy blood sugar,
- and lower your risk of chronic disease.

Yet, it’s typically deep-fried in oil, which raises its fat and calorie content.
However, baking falafel counters this issue and allows you to enjoy this dish without potentially affecting your waistline, if that’s a concern for you.

◾100-gram serving of 6 small patties of falafel contains the following nutrients (1Trusted Source):
-Calories: 333
-Protein: 13.3 grams
-Carbs: 31.8 grams
-Fat: 17.8 grams.

It also contains small amounts of niacin, vitamin B5, calcium, and many other micronutrients.

Vegan and gluten free 🌱❤️
