How To Avoid a “Trigger”

Somewhere along the way we fall victim to a “trigger.”

You stepped onto your bathroom scale and did a double take when you saw the numbers had moved up. After all, you thought you were doing everything right! You made changes in your lifestyle, you’re following the plan, starting to be more active, and even asked for help from your support system when you needed it. Yet, you gained weight, and you have no idea why. Here’s one possibility: Somewhere along the way you fell victim to a “trigger.” Tips below on “How To Avoid Falling Victim to A Weight Gain “Trigger”

At Slim180, we understand that triggers can derail progress toward your weight loss and healthy eating goals. That’s why our Protocol works to balance your diet to help your body feel satisfied, to reduce the chance that you’ll be “triggered” in the first place. But let’s look at triggers, and what you can do to cope with them.

What is a trigger?

A trigger is any kind of stimulus that we can react to. It can be sights, smells, sounds, locations, stressful or emotional situations, or even people that break down our resistance and cause us to eat things that sabotage our weight loss efforts.

How do you spot a trigger?

Because triggers are specific for everyone, they can be difficult to recognize, but here are some examples of things that can trigger someone into overeating and gaining weight:

Our surroundings that trigger

The enticing smell of cookies can lure us into a bakery, or even into our kitchen if a family member is baking, and, usually, when we walk out, those cookies leave with us.

Distracted eating trigger

Sometimes we’re triggered simply because we’re not paying attention to what we’re eating. For example, we check emails while snacking on some crackers. When we’re finished, so are the crackers. This could cause weight gain.

Think about what might trigger you—and read on to see how you can keep from falling victim.

 

What can you do to avoid falling victim to a trigger?

We are surrounded by opportunities to eat. Not only are they where you’d expect—like fast food restaurants—but also vending machines, gas station mini-marts with their displays of candy and coolers of soft drinks, or that box of donuts a family member brought home. Arm yourself with both knowledge and support to combat these triggers.

In addition, following the Slim180 Protocol will help you reset your metabolism and balance your blood sugars to help reduce the cravings a trigger may cause. It will provide you with the tools you need for a permanent weight loss solution!

The most important thing is to become more aware of what causes our triggers. Then learn to change our behavior so that we aren’t vulnerable to temptations. Triggers that are unavoidable or particularly tempting. The key is to have a game plan in place to deal with them. For example, if the smell of baked goods is tempting you, enjoy a Slim180 sweet snack. You can also try techniques such as visualization (picturing yourself achieving your weight loss objective) to help keep triggers at bay until the urge to overeat passes.
