Do
Hurricanes Affect Weight Loss? - Weathering The
Storm!

Do
you know this year Florida will go through a surge in baby births?
Think about it! More time spent inside last year. That's what it boils
down to with more babies this year. Fear motivation makes people bond
in order to weather the storm. Sometimes, Mother Nature in her on
little way brings people together.
Can hurricanes affect your weight loss goals? You bet it can! The
obvious answer is, you are inside more, so the temptation to over eat
is greater. The other way hurricanes affect losing weight is from an
emotional level.
Storms can make us feel out of control, overwhelmed, and darn right
scared. In search of security and control we turn to food for
stability, comfort, and trust. Only to realize later all is well which
ends well. Can we overcome such temptations is the much larger
question? Sure we can. It will take some pre-planning, decision making
and transfer of emotions.
Pre-planning: When you go out and get what you need to strengthen your
home from the winds and rain. Get what you need at the grocery store to
strengthen your body. You know that more time inside is going to
increase your appetite. In anticipation of that, get more foods than
normal in the better- for- you category. At least if you are going eat
more in calories, the calories will be better for you. Or in the very
least lower in fat.
Decision Making: Anticipate the longer hours in the house. The
pre-planed grocery trip helps, however, there has to be some offensive
thinking as well. Make it a point to eat healthy during this temporary
stay inside. Plan some fun activities to do. If you have exercise
equipment, take advantage of this time to use them.
Emotional Transfer: We tend to eat out of boredom and insecurity.
Hurricanes are only temporary. Your weight gain can be longer lasting.
Sustain from your over indulging for just a little while longer. One
day, one meal, one emotion at a time.
Don't let the temporary winds of the hurricane blow you off course of
feeling better, and maintaining that weight loss goal. If need be
revisit your goal list as many times as need be to keep you focused.
Call someone, anything to take the mind off of the illusion of losing
control.
