Day 12 of My Weight Clinic Christmas. We can all feel like we lose control this time of year and then have regrets a few days later. It's up to each of us to work out what we want from Christmas and food. If you're looking for a little more control and a little less weight gain, then take a look at these quick tips!

Day 11! Don't forget to actually enjoy your favourite foods. Don't sneak them in quickly and hope no one notices. Eating mindfully is no silver bullet when it comes to managing your weight, but it is a tool in the tool box. If you can have an awareness of your food choices this time of year, you'll have more chances of making the choices you actually want to make. Sometimes we forget what we've eaten, especially when we're busy, which can then lead to eating more calories over the course of the day. Pay attention and enjoy!

Day 10 My Weight Clinic Xmas! Unless you live under a rock, you cannot possibly have avoided all the Christmas marketing and advertising all around you telling you to buy and eat to excess. It's so tough right now to understand what is really driving the food choices we make and it can feel as though we lose control. It all depends on your own personal outlook. What is right for you this festive season and what boundaries can you set that you can really stick to?

Day 9 myweightclinic’s xmas. Some practicalities for the party season. Firstly enjoy those parties and the food there. It doesn’t have to be all about the food but we know at xmas, it often is. That and the alcohol! So if this is you, then try to change the spread of your energy intake in the days leading up to the gatherings and then after. Maybe you could try a little intermittent fasting so you do 5 days healthy and 2 days indulge, or in the party day start eating later and finish eating a little earlier to ensure you have a limit. You don’t have to be strict everyday, its how you spread things over the week that will count

Day 5 myweightclinic xmas 🎄🎅🏽🎁Had to make this 1 a little longer as I can waffle on about this for ages! Still lots more I’d like to say about this but that could take all day!

Each day/meal/snack can you ask yourself: how much energy do I need to eat for the activity I’m going to do today? Plan your meals and snacks on this. If you’re sitting most of the day, you don’t need an energy intake to achieve a marathon. If your work buddy brings in chocolates for xmas, this is still energy. If you want some, then you won’t need extra energy at lunch, so change the sandwich. Make it work for you💪🏻

Sorry about the wind, very short on time today and trying not to miss a day. Still setting the scene on why weight loss can feel bloomin’ impossible. But as long as you know about these things that are making it so hard, then you can decide when you have what it takes. More to come day 3!

Managing cravings can be the hardest part of weight loss. But don't let them beat you. Have a consistent approach and be purposeful about overcoming them. Eat by choice, not by craving.
We're here to help.

Weight loss can feel out of reach. So many different messages but you have to know what's right for you and how you can change things

18/08/2023

Knowing how to lose weight is very different from actually losing weight. You don't need to research any more recipes or diets. What you really need now is to focus on you. When did you last make time to meaningfully reflect on your mindset; challenge your beliefs about and relationship with food; or decide what your priorities should be?

Look, there's only one thing to do when a friend buys a tub of hummus the size of their head...

Recognising your body's signals can be useful in a weight loss journey. Hunger and cravings are different but are often confused. Eating in response to cravings can lead to eating more calories than you had planned. Be curious about the differences you experience in your body so you can make choices on purpose about your diet.

☺️ major smug face dietitian mum, but also probably quite annoying!!!! I asked my 7 and 8 year old what snack they would like post football. I suggested cereal or something on toast, they requested houmous and kimchi on rice cakes!!! 😆 I admit, 1 will eat anything, the other likes to ‘negotiate’. I know it’s not always this easy but a few points to help:
- at a neutral time, talk to your children about the nutrients food can provide E.g. calcium for bone strength, protein for muscle strength and recovery
- relate these facts to their goals, E.g. kick the ball in football or concentration for exams
- ask them how they feel when you offer a new food? Some can say they feel ‘pain’!
- discuss the process of trying new foods and what they can expect
- use the phrase: different is different, not bad, when trying new options
- let them lead on what they can manage, seeing the food for the first time, maybe tricky for some
- will they feel safe to add the new food to a comforting food? But never hide the food.
- help them to feel safe in the process, understand their fear, and then reassure them, but guide them that you are starting this process because you love them and want to support them in their goals and the future
You’ll be surprised at how early in childhood, and how late, you can apply this information
