The goal for this week is to be intentional. To be in the moment no matter what I am doing....so often I graze while watching TV or a movie. I'm not aware of how much I've eaten till all of a sudden the popcorn bowl is empty.
So here are some suggestions to help with this problem.
1. Say Grace before eating. It sets the mood for a level of mindfulness. Anything approached with reverence is less likely to be abused.
2. Get Hungry. Do I ever really experience hunger? Learn to recognize my body's hunger signals. Don't eat when I'm not hungry.
3. Food is Not Love. I don't need to overmedicate myself with food. It is not a substitute for comfort, security or love. Food is not an emotional crutch.
4. Food is not background music. Stop the constant flow of unconscious eating. Be aware of what I put in my mouth.
5. If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it. I will resign from the "clean plate" club. I will put my fork down between bites. I will actually taste my food.
