Ep 152: How Covid lockdowns changed your eating & drinking habits
Nothing everything goes back to our childhood! I know that many of us developed unhelpful eating and drinking habits during the covid lockdowns that have felt particularly hard to change. We placed a lot of importance on food and alcohol as entertainment and solace, fun and relief.
Drink on a Monday at 4pm? OK!
Cake for breakfast? OK!
Three course dinner for no apparent reason? Yes please!
I came out of lockdowns weighing the most I ever had without being pregnant!
I kept trying to lose weight with traditional diets but found it impossible to stay the course and be consistent -- and that's because I had learnt new eating/drinking habits in my home environment and had escalated existing connections between food/alcohol and pleasure/emotional management.
This episode encourages you to explore what habits changed for you during the lockdowns and whether you have any residual habits that are keeping you from feeling your best.
