Beating Mindless Eating
I found this report absolutely fascinating and true. So how do we stop this overeating spiral that we are all caught in?
For me the best thing is not to have food in the house that I don't want to eat. I also try asking myself "Why am I really eating this?" The answer is usually, "because it is there." Every time I walk by the candy dish with M&M's leftover from a baby shower, I grab a handful for no reason. I go to the kitchen because I am hungry, find nothing worth eating, and then grab something that is all carbs.
This process is really a total relearning of how we were raised eating and it is hard!
