]]>Start becoming aware of when you are feeling an emotion and when you reach for your favorite food. You will notice some patterns. Write them down so you can address and start adopting healthier habits when an emotion arises.
One of the main reasons people eat for emotional reasons is because they are disorganized with their meals and snacks. If you are full and satiated from your meals you will be less likely to reach for food when an emotion arises.
When an emotion arises, instead of being rash and reaching into the cookie jar, take a second and meditate or deep breath and calm those feelings down!
If you did reach for the cake when you were feeling angry or stressed, make time for the food, taste it, enjoy it, and move on. You will be less likely to overeat and feel bad after.

]]>Prepare two different types of protein for the week—it doesn’t have to be chicken and fish or meat and fish, it can be as simple as chicken cooked two different ways with two different sauces. You’ll want some variety when meal planning, so prepare some breasts for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and some thighs and legs for Tuesday and Thursday. The same goes for whole grains—you won’t want rice every night, so mix it up with some whole-grain pasta, quinoa, bulgar, or millet. These will last in the fridge for five days.
Cut up your vegetables for the week. What puts most people off is the constant chopping before each meal which takes longer than eating. So while your whole grains and proteins are cooking, start chopping. Keep them all in sealed containers in the fridge so you can just throw them in a salad or the oven when you come home from a busy day.
Make overnight oats for breakfast. This is a one-and-done prep that can last five mornings and is so filling and delicious that you won’t even need to think about what to eat. And you can add anything you want on top. All you need is a bag of oats and some yogurts—we suggest the high-protein ones. Then add your milk of choice, chia seeds (if you want), and maple syrup or honey. You will have a meal filled with all the nutrients you need. You can make it in a large bowl or put it in individual mason jars.

]]>Rushing to the store to buy food every day costs a lot of money and wastes a lot of time. Having a list of meals and ingredients you’ll need for the upcoming week, means that you can buy everything you need in only one trip to the supermarket. Not to mention that you’ll also reduce the amount of food waste.
Planning your meals in advance will help you take control of what you’re eating on a daily basis. With a weekly meal plan, you can make sure that you and your family are eating enough fruit, veggies, protein, and grains every day.
Eating a homemade meal is always the healthiest and most delicious option. If you’re waiting for the last minute to come up with something to eat, you’ll probably end up eating a takeout every day.
