tip#1: purchase or package after shopping food in serving sizes. My environmental side would say buy large quantities and re-package at home but my Way to LIVEit success has been quite dependent on serving size packages. i.e. applesauce, tunafish, baby carrots... The "different" thinking is - if you have the option to heap the portions most of us will take it. If you have to go back for another whole package = portion control!
tip#2: Use affirmations and meditation - daily, several times a day for me. You can do this easily without making a big deal out of it. It is basically just "quiet time." Steal several minutes off and on throughout your day to pause, breath, envision your best self and the life and love that you deserve in your life and make up your own affirming statements to repeat that put you in that body, in that lifestyle, in that position, in that love.
tip#3: Most all of us eat for many very compelling (by habit) reasons other than to fuel our bodies. Fueling our bodies is what eating is for. All other eating is something we have added and is not essential except that we have made it essential to ourselves. Good News: Focus on the fueling your body. Listen to your body. When you have been primarily just fueling your body for a time, you will be amazed at how easy it is to just follow its demands and leave the habitual behind!
