#lowcarb

We all have the best of intentions, especially at the start of a new year. We are going to do better or turn things around. We resolution ourselves without setting ourselves up with a plan to achieve the success. One of the big keys to any kind of healthy lifestyle for 2023 is going to be the need to recognizing and breaking any kind of sugar or carb addiction that you have. And more than likely, you have one.

Today, Lifestyle Medicine Physician Dr. Lucy Burns is with us to help us do just that. To help us recognize our sugar addiction and become more aware of what it is, where it came from, what it does to our bodies, and finally what we can do to break that sucker!

Some of the things we discuss:

• The Keys to Healthy Living
• What are Sugar and Carb Addictions
• Do YOU have a sugar addiction?
• The Brain and Dopamine
• Society And Marketing's role in our addictions
• The emotions of eating
• Why are we overweight?
• How much sugar should we be ingesting daily?
• Treatment of obesity vs. Prevention of obesity
• How to begin to tame the Midlife Middle
• How much protein should we be getting?

Many of us think we need to have all these rules when it comes to eating, which couldn’t be further from the truth.  In this episode, I'll discuss some common food rules we put on ourselves and why it’s difficult to stick to them. 

“Most of us cannot outwill what we’ve subconsciously wired into our brain.” 

Common Food Rules:

❌Low Carb

❌No sugar

❌No processed foods 

❌Don’t eat after a certain time

❌Drink a glass of water when you're hungry

What food rules have you set for yourself? 

If you had a food rule how long were you able to stick to it?

Typically having food rules is a recipe for feeling guilty, frustrated, and generally down on yourself.

Highlights:

02:04 Diet cycle

04:20 Psychology of restriction

05:04 Food rules & our subconscious 

The more you try to restrict, the more frustrated and guilty you feel in the end.

When you tell yourself not to eat carbs, what do you think about all day long?  Carbs!  Setting these rules puts more emphasis on the food you're trying to avoid. 

The negative perspective of “don’t eat this” or “don’t eat that” is not a healthy way to go about it. Maybe try a new food rule “eat vegetables all day long”...
