Of course, sometimes this isn't always doable, because in certain situations you're stranded without food. In those moments, MacCormack suggests doing something positive, like listening to nice music or having a conversation, to help you feel better. If you can't do that, then it's best to take a step back and own that your hunger is influencing how you feel. "Recognize, Okay, this is still kind of bad, but maybe it's not as bad as I'm feeling it is," she says. "Just taking time noticing your feelings can help put you back in the driver's seat, so to speak, of your emotions." And if all else fails, just pack a Snickers in your bag in case of emergencies.
