10 Reason You Eat When You’re Not Actually Hungry

1. To cope. But if you turn to food for emotional reasons, you won’t resolve the underlying issues.
2. Out of boredom. But eating can only last for so long—and then you have an afternoon to fill!
3. Because other people are eating. Check in with your hunger level to see if you really need it.
4. Because food is there. If you’re unable to nix the trigger food altogether, move the treats out of sight—you’ll be less likely to grab a handful.
5. Because it’s a special occasion. Celebrations are about the people, not the food.
6. Because you’re tired. A change of scenery might be just the ticket to battle the afternoon lull.
7. Because the clock says so. Don’t just eat when the clock tells you to! When mealtime hits, use it as a cue to check in with your current hunger level.
8. Because it’s free (or cheap). Always check in with your body’s hunger level before you automatically fill your plate with a freebie.
9. Because you can’t say no to food pushers. You can always set the fork down or share the cake with neighbors or co-workers, or simply eat just a small portion.
10. Because you suffer from clean plate syndrome. To prevent overeating, take stock throughout your meal to gauge how hungry you are; you might find that you don’t need those last few bites after all.

Well…after alot of thought and careful consideration I have decided to restart the Dukan diet.

I have tried this diet before and was successful at it for the short time I followed it, but life got in the way (or I used it as an excuse anyways…) and I fell off the wagon. This happened not because the diet was difficult or I did not like it but just because it was easier to stuff my face with carbs.

I am so tired of being uphappy with myself!! So today is day one! I am excited and I am in it for the long, long haul this time ( it looks to be a very long road so I figured I should put more emphasis on the length of the haul… :/ ).

I would love to hear from anyone else following the Dukan diet!!
