Wow, I had never seen a woman eat like this before⊠I was sitting on a plane from Denver to Phoenix last week, and the poor woman beside me was eating as fast as⊠Bally the Dog!
But we can forgive this woman. You see, she made a classic diet mistake⊠you might even call it The #1 Afternoon Diet Mistake. Let me explainâŠ
I fly a lot, and Iâve noticed that most folks fail to plan ahead. So while I ate my healthy snack of walnuts and an apple, the poor woman beside me was getting hungrier and hungrier.
In fact, thereâs no doubt she was officially âHANGRYâ (Hungry + Angry).
When the flight attendants finally got to our seats in the back of the airplane, she was starving.
âIâll have a Ginger Ale and a snack box,â she said, handing over her credit card.
She immediately ripped it open and âwent to town.â First she hoovered back the chips and salsa, then the hummus and pita chips, and then a second glass of soda to wash down the chocolate covered Acai berries that were her dessert.
(Warning: You should never eat a high-sugar meal like that for lunch, let alone on an airplane. And you should NEVER drink soda â or carbonated beverages â on an airplane. The gas expands in your digestive system, giving you what flight attendants call, âjet belly,â a big bloated stomach that can hang around for days.)
After she vacuumed up every last crumb, she turned over the empty packages and read the ingredient list and calorie counts. I could see the disappointment on her face out of the corner of my eye.
Her HANGRY had turned to Full-Shame Fullness.
Weâve all been there. Weâve all made the #1 afternoon diet mistake.
You get home from a busy day. You havenât eaten in 6 hours and youâre starving, and worst of all, your kids are full-blown HANGRY.
So you go into Emergency Response Mode, creating the fastest meal you can⊠it might be MacânâCheese, or hot dogs, or heck, even something out of a can. They eat a little bit, enough to stop screaming, and away they goâŠ
⊠leaving you to wolf down their leftovers because youâve lost all willpower. The next thing you know your hand is in the cookie bag. In a trance, you just canât stop eating untilâŠ
⊠suddenly â 6 cookies later â you snap out of it.
Another dayâs diet ruined.
But it doesnât have to be like that.
Whatâs the solution?
A little over a year ago I was introduced to the top personal trainer here in Denver, Missi Holt. She taught me her Hunger Scale Solution. Itâs a super-fast, super-effective tool that helps you avoid binges, cure your cravings, and finally eat for both fullness AND fat loss â guilt-free! I want you to meet this trainerâŠ
Hi, Missi Holt here, and I want to add a few things to what Craig has
mentioned. In my 14-year career Iâve helped hundreds of clients fix
their diets, lose weight, and transform their bodies.
As a Master Fitness & Nutrition Therapist, Iâve discovered delicious and filling nutrition tricks and recipes that help you burn fat and overcome cravings and binge eating. And with the Hunger Scale Solution, Iâll walk you through how to cook for your family and prepare for parties so that you can eat and be satisfied while still fitting into your favorite party outfits.
Take a look at what some of my current coaching members are saying about itâŠ

I love my body now and my husband certainly thinks Iâm sexy so Iâve gotta love that!!!â â Emma Kipps, 45, Wollongong, Australia

Whatever is in your way, youâre stronger than it, youâre tougher than it, and youâre better than it. Youâre going to beat it. You must truly believe in yourself. You must end the âIâll give this a tryâ mindset, and switch to an, âIâm going to succeedâ belief.
