Instead of reaching for the Snickers, what I'm going to do is reach for a nonfat Greek yogurt, or I'm going to reach for an apple, or I'm going to reach for a chocolate-flavored protein shake. because maybe it will provide something a little bit more nutritious for me. Maybe it'll help me more towards my goals and maybe it will feel more in control.

And so over time, the longer that you do that, the more of a chance that you'll have to actually reinforce and instill that habit and make that the response that you have to those stresses that you have in life. And yes, it does seem very daunting because it is, but the reality is, You can take control and by switching up your habits, you can have a very real strategy to make that happen.

That and the other strategy that I really like, particularly on this conversation of finding foods and cravings a problem. If you know that you have what's essentially a trigger food, a food that you feel like you're not having in a controlled manner. If you're choosing to have a Snickers bar and you're saying, hey, this is a conscious choice. I'm happy when I have it.

I don't feel guilt afterwards. I fully support you in doing that. That's not what we're talking about when we talk about cravings and having issues with them. If it feels like it's an emotional response and it's something that you can't control, you can work on both changing those habits through a substitution of that routine, or you can adjust your food environment itself.

So the approach for ice cream would be the same as what we just talked about. You know, you can change out a routine and that routine could either be a substitute food, apple. I mean, that's not going to feel great. Fruit. Yeah. I mean, any kind of fruit would work, you know, high fiber, high nutrient type foods, leaner proteins are always really good choices there.

The other thing that you can do for a routine change is you could substitute a meaningful activity. Now, it doesn't have to be fun or enjoyable. It can be, and that's great if it is. It has to be meaningful to you in some way, and it has to be readily available. And I usually recommend that people write a list of about five things. You know, what do you like to do? Do you enjoy reading a book?

Do you like calling a friend? Do you like playing video games? Can you do laundry that you needed to do? Like I said, it doesn't have to be fun, but at least if it's something that gets something done in your life, you're cutting out stress that you would have had later because you were procrastinating on doing laundry.
