Doesn’t matter if you are trying to lose weight or to live a healthy lifestyle. Eating well is important.
In fact, nutrition services is big in Singapore. Gyms, such as Ultimate Performance, include weekly meal plans for their clients and UFIT even has multiple trainers with a degree in food and nutrition to make sure their clients’ needs are met.
Earlier this week, I had the good fortune of speaking with nutritionist and personal trainer Caitlin Hosking. Caitlin studied nutrition science and psychology, and is now working with women to overcome emotional eating.
In her conversation with me, she discussed how writing meal plans to facilitate weight loss is not good enough.
Healthy eating habits is a behaviour change that way deeper. She talked about the importance of being aware and being mindful of our own inner thoughts. She also discussed how our mindset has a huge part to play in her work.
Nutrition and health really does go hand-in-hand.
We forget that eating has a social and psychological element as well. There are many health issues beyond food intake that may influence our eating behaviour.
