Parenting Pointers 1136 - A messy kitchen can make you fat

A messy kitchen can make you fat Is your kitchen a disorganized mess? If so, it might be adding to your waistline. People with chaotic kitchens frequently have out-of-control feelings of stress that make them hungry. Their thoughts go something like this...”Life is hard. I’m really stressed. I deserve a treat”. Oh yeah, and what happens next? They get really stressed again and they go looking for food in their totally messed up kitchens. We get good at what we practice and when we practice feeling sorry for ourselves, we might just dive into that carton of ice cream. Then, we feel terrible and the kitchen doesn’t get cleaned up and neither does the rest of the house. We feel out of control and the kitchen is screaming at you saying, “You’re out of control. Just look at me!” Women who feel stressed eat twice as many snacks in a chaotic kitchen as those in a quiet, organized space. Clean up your kitchen. Quiet your mind and lose weight.
