Appetite
Appetite for anything is a strong instinctive physical desire, especially for food, drink or sex. When we have appetite, we have desire and when the desire is really strong our appetite can become very greedy, making us want to over indulge with no sense of responsibility.
Venus Cow says, "Curb your appetite for indulgence and heighten your appetite for life."
An out of control unconscious appetite can leave you eating all day long which will eventually cause weight gain and your health to suffer. So we have to learn to control our appetite for things that are bad for us. If you find you cannot stop yourself snacking before meals, you must drink plenty of cold water instead to help fill you up, giving you the feeling of being satisfied. Keep your blood sugars at an even place all day long by not missing meals and eating small healthy snacks in-between. Cottage cheese and crackers or almonds are very good for keeping your cholesterol low and you healthy.
Venus Cow says, "Avoid over eating due to your emotions."
If you are feeling low and want to binge, trigger your brain to get you outside exercising which will help burn some fat off and make you feel good. Go for a long country walk. You must always have breakfast no matter what because your body, like your car, needs fuel to get it started and if you miss this meal, you will be sluggish all day. We must also get plenty of sleep because we are prone to have appetite surges when we are very tired to help perk us up. Don’t be fooled into thinking eating carbs and chocolate for comfort is you having a ferocious appetite because you are hungry, this is not the case. Many times when we feel sad, fed up, miserable, depressed, we reach for the cookie jar and before we know we have eaten the whole lot. This does make us feel lifted in the moment but can make us more depressed afterwards because now we have overloaded on unwanted calories and are on our way to being fat.
Venus Cow says, "Curb your appetite by eating less, exercising more and learning to laugh.
