SURVIVING THE EASTER CHOCOLATE MOUNTAIN!
|
|
As a child I loved Easter so much. To me it meant Spring, lighter days to play out in the street and best of all chocolate - mountains of it! I remember asking my mum one Autumn when Easter was, to which she replied 'After Christmas'. On Boxing Day I asked, 'Is it Easter now?'
Will you have lots of chocolate 'hanging around' the house over the next few weeks? Remember, our minds can insist we are hungry when they spy something to eat, even when are body knows it is not physically hungry. Here are some suggestions for your waist line to survive over Easter:
- Put Easter eggs away in a cupboard that you do not go into very often. DO NOT leave them out in full view, or the little voices in your head will start to torment you every time you see them!
- Say this statement out loud before you eat the chocolate when you are not physcially hungry, 'I am not hungry, but I am going to eat this Easter Egg anyway'.
- Go and do something to distract yourself for 5 minutes - hopefully the craving will pass.
- Ask for dark chocolate eggs - these are more difficult to over indulge in.
- Give spare Easter eggs to children's homes, hospitals etc.
Enjoy your Easter break.

What the last course thought...
It has made eat much more sensible amounts of food without the feeling of deprivation that diets can bring. It’s quite liberating to be given the power to make decisions on what and when to eat without any diet restrictions and STILL lose weight! Alison, Cheshire
I have lost ten pounds which is great, I feel I have gained control over food. Gail, Cheshire
I not longer feel like I'm on a diet and actually feel in control of my future and weight loss. Julie, Cheshire
To think before I eat! Karen, Cheshire
To not yo-yo and deprive myself, but to just try a bit of something you fancy. Becky, Cheshire
I've learnt no food is a sin, to enjoy food, not having to eat food you don't enjoy because its low fat and calories etc, eating when you are hungry. Christine, Cheshire
Very informative course that has changed my thinking, making me a happier and healthier person. Emma, Stockport
Vanessa has been a fantastic support throughout the programme and given so much extra time to us all for life coaching! Brilliant value for money! Katie and Chris, Cheshire.
