Recent research has shown that an easy technique when you’re grocery shopping can help your weight loss fast diet and can also save you money at the same time… It may be hard to believe but it’s true!!
So, how can you lose weight and save money? At present almost everyone is trying to save money due to price rises, fears about their job security and their lack of confidence in the financial sector. There are many people struggling to pay off debts.
Times are hard at the present and every little bit of saving can help. If any savings also help us lose weight, feel better and make us healthier then all the better!
It’s hard not to buy all those unhealthy foods when we’re out shopping. The comfort foods that we love so much are full of fat and full of sugar. We love to eat them in an evening when watching TV. We eat them out of habit and they’re hard to do without.
The psychology used by supermarkets to tempt customers to buy comfort foods is extremely clever. It’s well known that how goods are displayed has an impact on what we buy. Shoppers find it very difficult to resist the foods they love and many purchases are simply made out of habit.
Can we keep up with a fast diet and keep hold of more of our money?
That appears to be true. The research indicates that if you pay with cash for your groceries rather than use a credit card, you will buy far fewer foods that contain fat and sugar. Cash encourages you to become a more careful shopper. One thousand shoppers’ purchases were checked over a six month period and far less fatty and sugary foods were bought by those paying with cash.
Purchases paid for with a credit card included a high proportion of unhealthy foods. More healthy foods were bought by those customers paying with cash.
How does this happen? It seems that using cash has a greater impact on the shopper than using a credit card which is more abstract and seems less real to them. The cash purchase is more painful and results in the shopper being more careful and thoughtful about what they buy. Cash shopping helps control impulse buying.
It seems then that you can stick to your fast diet, lose weight and save money all at the same time…
