3 WAYS TO...

Manage food noise

1 EAT PROTEIN AND FIBRE

'Choices that are high in protein and fibre will help you to stay fuller for longer,' says Zoe Griffiths, behaviour expert at Numan**. 'Being physically hungry can make thoughts of food and food decisions louder.'

2 CHALLENGE YOUR THOUGHTS

When cravings hit, pause and ask - am I physically hungry or am I wanting to eat in response to something else? 'Noticing and challenging these feelings can help break the cycle,' says Zoe.

3 PLAN AHEAD

'You may feel food noise is easier to deal with once you've set a plan,' says Zoe. Knowing what you are going to eat for the day or week ahead can help you become less focused on it.
