Do you find yourself overeating while watching TV or grabbing treats near the office coffee pot?

These environmental cues can influence your eating habits without you realising it.

Learn how to identify and change these triggers to build healthier habits.

Stimulus (cue) control involves learning what social or environmental cues seem to encourage undesired eating, and then changing those cues.

 

  • For example, you may learn from reflection or from self-monitoring records that you're more likely to overeat while watching television, or whenever treats are on display by the office coffee pot, or when around a certain friend.
  • You might then try to change the situation, such as by separating the association of eating from the cue (don't eat while watching television), avoiding or eliminating the cue (leave the coffee room immediately after pouring coffee), or changing the circumstances surrounding the cue (plan to meet your friend in a non-food setting).
  • In general, visible and reachable food items are often cues for unplanned eating.
