Brinley Fox worked long hours at her desk as a freelance graphic designer, and she fought the urge to snack for even longer.
She acknowledges, “I was in the pantry by 3 p.m.” “And I never reached for carrots.”
She was aware that she needed a fulfilling meal to get her through the day without causing her blood sugar to spike or her energy levels to plummet. She learned about the power of fibre at that point.
According to her, “it wasn’t just about avoiding junk.” “It was about providing my body with something that truly made me feel full.”
She began experimenting with simple, tasty, and high-fiber snacks, such as air-popped popcorn, chia pudding, roasted chickpeas, and sliced apples with almond butter. The secret was to keep things steady and uncomplicated, without being too processed or sweet.
It was an adjustment at first. She acknowledges, “I missed the quick fix of a cookie.” “However, I was not blind to the subsequent crash.”
After a few weeks, she became aware of a change: she wasn’t constantly hungry. Her workdays became more seamless, her mood stabilised, and her focus improved.
Brinley claims, “Fibre became my secret weapon.” “It changed my day, not just my diet.”
She now urges people to reconsider snacking. She smiles and says, “You don’t have to give up snacks.” “You simply need to eat more intelligently.”
