We don’t always eat just to satisfy physical hunger. Many of us also turn to food for comfort, stress relief, or to reward ourselves. And when we do, we tend to reach for junk food, sweets, and other comforting but unhealthy foods. Unfortunately, emotional eating doesn’t fix emotional problems. In fact, it usually makes you feel worse. Afterward, not only does the original emotional issue remain, but you also feel guilty for overeating.
Additionally, you may find it challenging to stick with an exercise regimen if you are not able to go to your favorite gym during this time. In this video, Janay Cameron shares the benefits of meal planning to include cost/time savings, as well as potential weight loss. Janay believes commitment to exercising requires consistency and we should trust the process while remaining patient.
Taking care of ourselves during this time can be simple – rest, eat properly, do a little exercise, walk around the house, and get some fresh air.
