Here’s how to kill your cravings

applied fitness inc helps clients lose weight


 You CANNOT out-exercise a bad diet.


Ever get really bad food cravings (who hasn't!) Well, the real secret to controlling food cravings is keeping them at bay before they even start.

Step #1: BE AWARE of your cravings, so you can 1) notice patterns and 2) feel more in control of them.
So … what’s the next step?

Step #2: BE PREPARED. The Scouts were onto something with this one.
If you know that you start craving salty/sweet/crunchy food every time you crash on the couch at night after a long day, BE PREPARED.

If you know that every afternoon you start having visions of chocolate chip cookies dancing in your head, BE PREPARED.

If you always associate eating beer and wings with watching the fights or the game on the weekends, BE PREPARED.

What “being prepared” looks like will depend on you and your situation.

But it can include these two simple tactics:
  • Find a diversion. I quit snacking on junk food at night when I got tired. (yes, it happens to me too!) Instead of just watching TV, I did some home organization projects with the TV on. I also dabbled with a few hobbies – anything to focus my attention on something else!
  • Have a healthier option on-hand: frozen fruit, carrot/celery sticks, nonfat yogurt with fresh berries, homemade air fryer wings. Make sure it’s ready to go.

From my own experience (and that of my clients) it only takes a few days of making the switch for cravings to start going away. (REALLY.)

And also for you to start noticing changes in your energy, your sleep, and your results!
It’s all about being intentional about what you put into your body … and not letting the “automatic” habits take over and derail you from your goals!

It’s a lot easier than you think.

Here at Applied Fitness, we focus on simple changes that bring big results.
If you’re looking to lose weight (and keep it off) then let us help you put a personalized plan together to help you get there! Schedule Your Complimentary Session!

Make it an incredible day,

​Brian Meisenburg

The Missing Piece of Your Fat Loss After 40 Success

The Missing Piece of Your Fat Loss After 40 Success Is this why your hormones are out of whack...? Macros. Strength training. These are undoubtedly crucial components of a successful fitness journey. But there's one more piece to the puzzle that often gets overlooked: sleep. Without sufficient sleep, even the most dedicated workout routines and carefully planned diets can fall short. When you're sleep-deprived, your body's hormones, which regulate metabolism and appetite, can become imbalanced. This can lead to increased cravings, reduced energy levels, and slower weight loss. So, how much sleep do you need? Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night. Create a relaxing bedtime routine, ensure your sleep environment is dark and quiet, and limit screen time before bed. By prioritizing sleep, you'll support your body's ability to recover from workouts, burn fat, and build muscle. So, next time you're feeling frustrated with your fitness progress, consider whethe...
