Eating Habits
Well, I am doing it again…. being inspired by a fellow blogger who left a comment on one of my posts. This time I am writing a short post in honor of Christine Maria Lindner from http://christinemarialindner.com who left a comment about emotional eating on my blog (funny, it’s on my post about DoFollow, Top Commentator, KeywordLuv and CommentLuv). As I liked her comment and the blog feed that came back through CommentLuv looked interesting, I decided to head over to her blog and check it out.
To quote from her blog, “Christine Lindner is an Internationally renowned Health Coach, who uses her extraordinary knowledge of International Flower Essences, Touch for Health and the Law of Attraction to help people transform their lives.”
She has one blog post on her blog that really grabbed my attention, and after reading it I decided to give you all a link to it, because it really captures all the essential important facts about eating habits, and it gives really great ideas about how to handle the daily “battle” with food. Christine seems to have embraced the facts that she is listing in her post, and has lost 13 kgs in doing it! That’s quite impressive.
So, I urge you to head over to her blog and read up on the important facts about eating habits – I am sure you will hear a few things that will change your outlook on food and how to “handle” it in your daily challenge with weight loss and healthy eating.
Hi Petra,
Thanks for sharing us this post. I was reading Christine’s Blogs and I really think that eating based on how you feel and think is very much important if you want to keep yourself healthy. =)
I’ll be reading more of you and Christine’s posts. =)
Thanks.
Best,
-Maria

Emotional eating is probably something that affects everybody. I think that some of us are lucky enough where we only emotionally eat every so often (a bad day, or maybe a great day, to celebrate). If someone is emotionally eating every day though they really need to look into that alot more than just dieting and exercising, because like most people they will likely gain the weight back and the key is to really find why why you are eating yourself to bad health.

Thank you for sharing these wonderful facts about eating habits, Ms. Weiss! I haven’t realized that skipping meals really make me very prone to eating more. I also tend to have a few sugary candies and bread when I don’t eat meals, but now I know better! I’m impressed too that Ms. Christine had lost 13 kgs in 1 year following only the facts about eating habits. I would be very happy if I lost just 3 kgs in 1 year. Again, thank you for sharing this – I will definitely print this and post it on my door

Glad I found your blog. Christine Lindner seems like a super resource. I just cut out dairy products and decided to not go out to eat for a long time. Just that alone has helped me lose 10 pounds in 8 weeks. I’m going slow.
8 pounds in 10 weeks is a great result, Martha! Slow is good – because then it will stay off!
Hi,I think that Staying healthy includes a balanced diet, staying clean, getting plenty of exercise as well as keeping your heart strong and free of drugs.I am really impress to read these good instructions….
You have lost 10 pounds in 8 weeks. It’s really very astonishing news for me. If it is possible to reduce weight just cutting the dairy products from your diet then i am going to follow you. I am sure i will also get the same results as you have achieved. Thanks for the tip Martha.

Thanks a lot for the motivation you’ve provided. I know in my own work its been a challenge, especially since I am always on the move and a lot of the times because my job involves traveling I don’t always get the best pick of places to eat at. Is there any recommendations you can make regarding people who have to eat while traveling? Whats a good practice to stick too?
I would say try to stick to eating a little bit every 2 – 3 hours. Try to carry your snacks with you, especially apples and other fruit, this will make it easier to resist to just buy something. If only “unhealthy” food is available, go for a small serve. I don’t know – any more tips from my other readers?
Petra, when you say “a little bit” do you mean not having set meals and eating (grazing) throughout the day?
thanks for your sharing, i will to try, i think 8 pounds in 10 weeks is a great result for me

That was a great resource. We are what we eat. We are our habits and our habits are us. It takes some time to build those habits but once there, these are the ones that help keep us sane. Once again, thanks for the resource.

Thanks for sharing Petra! That was an interesting find with Christine’s site. It was refreshing to see some pretty unique takes on nutrition. I especially liked the texture comment, as we’re struggling with our 11-year old who has a very limited diet. His physicians at Childrens Hospital in Denver have expressed at length the role of texture, rather than just taste, as a factor in expanding and allowing him to expand his diet. Interesting stuff.
We’re also experimenting and using glycemic index food list (http://www.glycemicedge.com/glycemic-index-chart/) choices to get us on the right path as we have some early markers for diabetes and familial heart disease.
Keep up the good posts!
you weren’t kidding! I’m completely floored by some of her ideas- First things I’m going to do is practice the glass of water before meals that I will eat on a SMALLER plate. I would have never thought of these things-
I’m 25 and I try to keep my body in good shape and these simple tips help me a lot!) I feel it, thanks.
Good thing you posted her comments on your site. Christine Lindner’s coaching is definitley gaining lots of following and I’m heading to her site right now.
Cheers!
Family therapy is extremely important for teens with eating disorders. Because they live in a family context, teenagers need desperately to feel that their family is supporting them. The family in turn needs support as parents and siblings try to cope with the way anorexia and bulimia affect their lives.
Hi Petra,
Fantastic blog post you’ve linked out to! I personally have always felt that watching what it is you consume, especially those empty calories is what at the end the day does no good for our body, I’ve not only watched what I’ve been eating, but at the same time what liquids I’ve been putting into my body, I’ve been able to rid myself of the Coca Cola / Soda habit, and have been going towards more healthier drinks, and it’s definitely paying off
Even if I don’t lose weight I know in the long run it will make me healthier.
Sorry for my rant… just had to throw it in there!
Till then,
Jean

nice comment healthy diet is important for healthy life.
Doing 5 minutes each of push-ups, lunges, and squats (in 30-second intervals) will help build and maintain muscle mass. The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism will be, so you’ll torch more calories as you go about your day.
The weight you lost means nothing, you need to check your body fat once a while or at least take pictures of yourself once a week. As well as you might lost fat, you might lost muscles. And the less muscles you have, the less energy your body needs to maintain you, so your body will burn way less calories by maintaining itself if you lose lots of muscle.
What I like about Christine is that she is a true professional, giving all this valuable information away on the internet for free. These days there are so much bullshit weight loss articles around, written by internet marketeers instead of weight loss experts. Thanks for the recommendation!

I always try to follow and find news about Christine Lindner she has totally changed my life. Just reading blogs about her and what she has to say has turned me into a healthier person.
That’s a very good post from Christine, Petra. And you’re right about going slow, too. IMHO the fastest loss we can target safely is just 2 lb. per week max. I’ve lost 5 lbs./week before, only to gain 8 lbs. some months later.
Just to add up to the list:
- Avoid fruit juice & eat real fruits (for weight loss). Fruit juice lacks fibers, & the 1 in the market has too much sugar.
- Eat as fresh as we can. The mass production of our foods makes them put nasty stuff like high fructose corn syrup & pesticide. What we buy in the market are protein from fat & depressed cows & chickens. Go organic for imported foods & have grass-fed cows & free-range chickens instead.
- Eat a small complete meal every 2-4 hours. Some whole-wheat tuna sandwiches can do the trick on the go (the amount depends on our BMR, since I found BMI less accurate).
Thanks for sharing the link, Petra. I just realized that our “eating habit” is what we should change. Because there are times when we would eat less to lose weight. But the habit is still there (eating snacks a lot, etc.).
I will have to check her blog out. I tend to be a emotional eater and it is a very hard habit to break.
Being a new blogger, I would like to tell you that you have given me much knowledge about it. Thanks for everything.

I have a problem with avoiding all sugars, desserts. The problem is I eliminate the sugars entirely and then relapse – and relapse in excess.
I have found that I need a strategy in plan prior to relapse. I drink some orange juice every day. If a feel a craving for ice cream, pie, candy – I’ll drink some orange juice; eat almonds, sunflower seeds; or put a little sugar on some healthy cereal.
It’s not a perfect plan, but at least I can give my body what it craves – while recognizing the sugar desire onslaught – but not over do the sugars.
I have lost 5% body fat in the last 4 weeks, well on the way to revealing my abs thanks to this great site, Thank You!
WOW, are you serious? That would be fantastic!!!
That is a very nice and informative article that you referred to. Especially it is very interesting to know that some times thirst can be mistaken as hunger so keeping our self hydrated can really help us in losing weight.
With so much information available about the effects of dietary fat on health, understanding the role fat plays in a well-balanced diet can be pretty confusing. To cut through the confusion, it’s important to remember that fat is an essential nutrient that everyone needs to stay healthy.
Thanks for sharing what you know regarding facts about eating habits. I am really particular with the food that I eat and at the same time on about what the proper eating habit that I should retain and forget. I’m really concerned about being fit but at the same time healthy.

I check Christine post and I would say that her post has a 100 % sense. I like the line from Christine says- “Look forward to your success with satisfaction and the certainty that you are reaching the desired outcome.” having sense right? Very great post, more power to you and to Christine. Continue sharing your knowledge through this blog, because you helped many people. Regards..!!!
If you are in a middle of you losing weight regime and you cant control your emotional eating, then that could spell disaster on your goals to lose that extra weight. If you cannot control the urge no matter what happen, then instead of eating unhealthy foods, you should try eating unsalted nuts, fruits or fresh vegetables salads. Avoid eating chocolates, cakes and other sweets. Turn your emotional eating habits into a advantage.
I think that some of us are lucky enough where we only emotionally eat every so often (a bad day, or maybe a great day, to celebrate). If someone is emotionally eating every day though they really need to look into that alot more than just dieting and exercising
Thanks for this really informative post. Yes, diet is very important. Many people failed to lose weight because of their eating habits. Eat more meals, but lesser in quantity. That’s my formula to losing weight.

Many peoples eating habits are the one reason they are unhealthy and not at their ideal weight. understanding your eating habits and getting them under control really makes eating more healthy and allows people to enjoy food more.
Nice Post. It is interesting to hear how you came about making it. I agree with the slow and steady approach to weight loss that you describe. So many people in the US especially have this distorted notion that they can lose a ton of weight overnight. Then when they dont they get frustrated and often times depressed. This can cause them to fall back into their old habits of eating and/or drinking leading them to gain even more weight.
Add to that how awful most peoples diets are because we dont know how to cook at home and our portion sizes are way out of wack.
Good stuff, keep it coming.
Thank you for another essential article. Where else could anyone get that kind of information in such a complete way of writing? I have a presentation incoming week, and I am on the lookout for such information…!! ^^”

always remember to eat breakfast. It is the most beneficial meal in the day, and the most important. Breakfast gives you body fuel for the day and keeps your energy levels up, and your mind alert.
