We're coming out of lockdown slowly here in the UK, and I've noticed a lot of conversations recently about social eating. For people who have been on a weight loss journey, there's a lot of worry that they will "fall off the wagon" and overeat, then start up the bad habits of overeating again.

Social situations are rich in cues and triggers to overeat. Consider all the smells and visuals of food around you, the unconscious habits that may have you reaching for the wine on the table without even thinking or the places that you may find yourself ordering a piece of cake without even thinking about it. And that's not even mentioning 'food pushers' (those lovely people who offer us food or drink, or the people who we often find we break our promises to ourself and eat off-plan).

In today's episode we discuss:

• the problem with being focussed on how you've behaved around these foods before (past focussed)
• the triggers that you may find come up for you when you're eating out of the house
• how to plan for success before you go so you can stay on track and practice being a new way around these foods and people
• the benefit of taking on a student or learners mindset to practice these new skills
