They usually don\u2019t succeed because they don\u2019t address the underlying reasons you make the choices you do.<\/p>\n<p>For example, being on a diet ignores the reasons you want to eat when you\u2019re not hungry. It simply puts you in a <a href=\"https:\/\/amihungry.com\/the-hidden-trigger-for-emotional-eating\">restrictive<\/a> mode of following the rules that eventually lead to deprivation and cravings. At some point you switch to overeating mode and revert back to eating in reaction to emotions or other cues.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why it\u2019s essential to recognize <em>why<\/em> you eat.<\/p>\n<p>Now consider your own intentions and resolutions for the New Year. <a href=\"https:\/\/amihungry.com\/what-do-you-want-to-be-different-this-new-year\/\">What do you want to be different?<\/a> And are you trying to get there by only changing your behavior, or are you going deeper to understand why you do what you do?<\/p>\n<p>Check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/amihungry.com\/to-change-old-habits\/\">next video<\/a> for a way to make your intentions or resolutions more effective so you make changes that last.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>To truly make this new year different, join us in our Level 1 Mindful Eating Support Community! <a href=\"https:\/\/amihungry.com\/support-community-level-1\"><strong>Click here to learn more!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amihungry.com\/support-community-level-1\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"752\" height=\"313\" src=\"https:\/\/amihungry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Level-1-ME-SC.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/amihungry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Level-1-ME-SC.png 752w, https:\/\/amihungry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Level-1-ME-SC-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/amihungry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Level-1-ME-SC-600x250.png 600w, https:\/\/amihungry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Level-1-ME-SC-500x208.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 752px) 100vw, 752px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<p><em>This article has been updated from a previously published version.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite our enthusiasm for a fresh start, New Year&#8217;s resolutions are often short-lived.
