In this video, we're going to talk about why you overeat when you're distracted.
I've talked about the many reasons many people overeat in the past, such as: • Flavorings (especially processed foods) • MSG • Sugar • Empty calories • Boredness • Stress
But what I haven't talked about yet are distractions. Distractions can be a major cause of overeating for many people.
When you eat while watching tv or using your cellphone, your awareness declines. You become unaware of when you're satisfied or full. In turn, you often overeat and experience symptoms like weight gain, indigestion, and bloating.
Why do you eat more when you're distracted? Your brain and digestive system work on a feedback loop. When you get the nutrients your body needs, your digestive system lets your brain know that it's time to stop eating.
When you're distracted, or you consume empty calories (substances that don't have the nutrients that complete the feedback loop), this feedback loop is interrupted.
Here's what you can do to eat more mindfully:
1. Stay aware — always focus on eating when you're eating (instead of the TV) and check in with your body frequently, so you notice when you're full.
2. Chew longer — try chewing 100 times before you swallow.
3. Have shelled nuts — if you have to de-shell your nuts, it's much more difficult to get distracted and over-indulge.
4. Use chopsticks — chopsticks may help you take smaller bites and take more time between bites.
5. Set a limit — don't allow yourself to go for a second plate, and don't over-fill your plate.
