Don't Obsess About Food
Summary:
Dieting often brings a 'diet mentality' where the constant measuring and counting of food can lead to an unhealthy obsession, similar to patterns seen in eating disorders. Is it possible to lose weight without fixating on food?
Dr. David Katz, author of The Way to Eat, offers a more balanced approach.
While balancing the calories you consume and burn is important, it's not necessary to scrutinize every calorie. Instead, Dr. Katz advises focusing on eating for health, which will naturally lead to sustainable weight loss.
His recommendations include opting for whole foods over processed ones that are loaded with sugars, fats, starches, and salts. Avoid items with 'flavor enhancers' like monosodium glutamate and high fructose corn syrup that can stimulate appetite.
Rather than obsessing, aim for healthier choices within food groups. Simple swaps, like using low-fat milk instead of cream in your coffee, can make a big difference?"saving you up to 50 calories per cup and providing essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin D with less fat.
But if you can't give up your coffee with cream, that's okay too. Identify the treats you love and adjust your diet elsewhere. If you keep the cream, consider skipping the muffin or using a low-fat margarine. Eating healthily is about making choices?"not becoming obsessed.
Here are some tips to help you eat healthier without focusing on calorie counts:
1. Opt for Whole-Grain Cereals: Replace sugary breakfast cereals with whole-grain options that have minimal added sugar. Add some fresh berries for natural sweetness.
2. Choose Natural Peanut Butter: Select peanut butter without added sugars and oils for a healthier alternative.
3. Snack Smarter: Keep some dried fruit handy for a high-potassium snack. This will keep you energized and reduce midday hunger, helping you avoid overeating at lunch.
By integrating these simple changes, you can maintain a healthier lifestyle without letting food become an obsession.
