 It happens to almost everyone. You get home from work, tired,
hungry, and
stressed, and you eat a nice dinner. But even though you
are full, you go
back to the fridge at 8. Then at 8:30. And then
again at 9. You might even
hit the fridge, or worse - the freezer
for ice cream - at 10:30.

Night-time eating. Binge eating. Whatever you call it, it's
killing
your progress. So here are my top 5 tips for overcoming binge eating.

When I hear from Turbulence Training readers about their
problems
with binge eating, I want to help. That's why I started a list of

the best ways to stop binge eating.

1) Brush your teeth after every
meal.

2) Keep the binge food as far away, and as inconveniently located
as
possible. If you have a kids, and keep some treats for them in
the
house, put them somewhere that you have to work to get them. Ie.
The
top shelf.

3) Go for a quick walk or miniworkout of bodyweight
exercises
rather than a binge.

4) Eat fruit, not junk, when you just
can't stop eating.

5) Try to avoid the environments where binges
happen.
