What is healthier?
A pint of Stella or green smoothie
A crispy cream doughnut or a bowl of strawberries
A plate of cheesy nachos or steamed salmon with vegies
No brainer right? so, why is it that we all understand what the healthier option is in our heads but when it comes to actually making that choice in reality its soo…damn…hard!!
Just take a mo to think about how eating your favourite foods make you feel. Is it Comforting, stress relieving, addictive, delicious, pleasurable or happy perhaps?
One of the biggest hurdles many of us face when deciding to live a healthy lifestyle is trying to let go of certain foods that do not support our goals. Here’s the thing, unhealthy habits regardless of their nature, all develop over time. I have found that one of the reasons breaking this habitual pattern feels like a tough mudder is this…The FGF aka Feel Good Factor!
We all experience this feeling, particularly when we know healthier choices are better for us but somehow that damn doughnut is just too tempting. And guess what, part of what makes high calorie foods super irresistible is a clever balance of sugar, fat and salt. A marriage made in processed feel good heaven
So you maybe wondering…How do I turn this old way of thinking around so that nutritious options can become my new feel good foods of choice??
