It’s day 6 of the New Year Master Cleanse and today I wanted to share some tips to help you not think about food.<\/p>\n
When you go through this process you can be sure the urge to eat will pop up from time to time. For some of you that nagging desire to eat will occupy your every waking thought. My experience tells me that if you need to use every drop of will power you have from the time you wake up to the time you go to bed just to stay on the Master Cleanse you probably have some trouble with overeating.<\/p>\n
That’s not always the case, but many times it is.<\/p>\n
The good news is the Master Cleanse can help break your dependency on food and train you to eat a healthy amount food.<\/p>\n
So today I want to give you some tips for keeping your mind off food:The first tip is to avoid anything that would trigger your desire to eat. This means staying away from food, and not being around people who are eating.<\/p>\n
You should also avoid TV because food commercials are designed to trigger your hunger.<\/p>\n
This next tip is simple. Whenever you feel like eating you drink water and lemonade until your hunger goes away. It’s easy and it works.<\/p>\n
Breaking the pattern. A lot of times your hunger will start out as a pesky little urge, but as you dwell on it, it quickly grows into a massive uncontrollable craving. It’s important that you break this pattern by recognizing your hunger early and stop it before it gets out of control. There’s any number of ways you can do this. You could go for a walk, take a shower, take a nap, sing, dance, whatever works.<\/p>\n
Have lots of things to do. Before I do the Master Cleanse I have a list of low stress activities planned. Books and movies are good choices. I also like to go to the museum. Bars and comedy clubs are fine as long as stick to drinking water.<\/p>\n
The most important thing is not to dwell on food while you’re doing the Master Cleanse because that almost always leads to quitting the cleanse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
