You know what you can do when you have white strips on your teeth-EAT. And all food/drink other than water tastes totally nasty after you take them off.
Why am I telling you this? Well, if you're at all like me, occasionally, I will have an episode of animalistic craving that makes me shove all food in my house into my mouth. I, personally, need something to stop be from beast-eating, so I throw some teeth whitening strips on and viola...no more eating. It doesn't matter the brand or if they even work, it just makes it so I can't eat anymore and stops the overeating. Now I'm definitely not saying you shouldn't eat if you are actually hungry, but if you know it's just a time when you are going to mindless or wildly eat just because, try some white strips or some of these other ways to stop the madness:
- Before you eat one more piece of food, drink a huge class of water (could be that you are just thirsty-sometimes our body can't tell the difference)
- Take a shot of apple cider vinegar-gross right? I do it ever single day .ACV supposedly controls your blood sugar and can balance your body in terms of acidity. (I water a tbsp down and shot it like a boss and follow up with a bit glass of water)
- Do some jumping jacks or jump squats-sometimes you may have a dip in blood pressure and just need that to come up a bit-I do this all the time.
- I also sometimes pour water on baked goods or chips or whatever is tempting me to the point of gluttony and then toss them (you know....because if they are just sitting on top of the trash, I might just dive right in and grab them...the struggle is real)
- Okay..if you do all of those things and you are still super hungry...you may actually BE hungry...so eat an apple with peanut butter or a couple cups of air popped popcorn and some almonds or a bunch of veggies and hummus.
