FLOURLESS ROASTED HAZELNUT DONUTS

To Donut or Not to Donut...⁠

You often find yourself fall into the craving cycle? Needing that sweet treat, or donut?⁠

The secret to busting your cravings is not by following some strict Diet...At the end of the day we all know Diets are not sustainable and we often don't stick to them...⁠

But why is this, well, most of the time Diets are not unique to YOU! Secondly, what works for one, does not necessarily work for YOU.⁠

So, Like I love to say, let us Ditch the D's.⁠

The way WE conquer your cravings is by outwitting them.⁠

How? By understanding why, where, and when they occur and creating a strategic action plan ahead of time.⁠

Planning ahead is a game changer!⁠

You also need to take in account, that you need to start simple, taking small daily actions that will lead to habits.⁠

You know that donut counter in the corner of the office is tempting you every single day around late afternoon! So, why not plan ahead.⁠

Finding your trigger and why this happens is a great start...⁠

You can then plan ahead and take action that will have a more positive outcome.⁠

For example, by planning ahead, you can make yourself your very own alternative to those not so healthy Donuts.⁠

Then you would need to look at other areas as to why you are craving those donuts and anything else that you know is getting you down.⁠

Be mindful that cravings are often brought on by environmental cues such as sight, smell, taste, location, or company. ⁠

So tracking when and where your cravings occur can you help you figure out what triggers them. From there, you can adjust your environment and habits to disrupt the cycle.⁠

Each time you experience a craving, jot down the answers to these questions:

What are you craving? (A specific food? A certain flavor or texture?)

Where are you? (Note your location, but also any smells or visual cues—like a cafe)

What are you doing? (Driving? Working? Watching TV?)

What are you feeling physically? (Shaky? Lightheaded? Tense?)

What are you feeling emotionally? (Happy? Cranky? Rushed?)

What are you thinking? (For instance: ‘I might as well eat this… I’ve already blown my diet.’)

Who are you with? (Be very specific.)


This isn’t a one-time exercise. Try it for a couple of weeks so you can see what patterns emerge. And trust us, there are almost always patterns.
