Why You’re Skipping Your Meal Plan? The Hidden Reason Behind Binge Eating Sabotage
What if you can't stick to a meal plan despite your best intentions? One woman I'm working with has an extremely busy schedule! Plus, she had a chaotic childhood where dinner wasn't served every night. Various nutritionists, doctors and dietitians have explained to her about the important of a meal plan. "Following a meal plan helps you avoid getting too hungry. If you get too hungry, you'll binge." "Following a meal plan helps you plan out your food intake instead of leaving what you eat to chance." Now in the past this woman tried to follow these meals plans. But somehow she would always 'fall off the wagon', as she would say. Something would always come up. She'd had to call her parents. She'd work all day and then take a class at night Various deadlines At first she said, "If only I had more time. Then I would have time to meal prep and do everything perfectly." But in the midst of the pandemic she realized something startling once she started working from home. Even though she gained an extra 2 hours per day and had plenty of time to meal prep, she would still skip meals and end up binge eating!
