So many overeaters will tell us that they just want more of the good taste of the food they're eating. They don't know the next time they'll have that particular pasta dish or dessert. Or they just want what they want, when they want it. If you just can't say no to food keep reading.
In the Shrink Yourself program one of our 10 Healthy Habits is called "Keeping Your Weight in Mind." This healthy habit means that to lose weight you have to stay conscious of how your food choices will ultimately affect your weight and your health. For many of us, there is a leftover childlike quality in us that doesn't want to wait to enjoy ourselves or doesn't want the quantity of our food restricted. Perhaps you've heard this childlike voice in your head that says things like, "I want it now," or, "I have to have it," or simply "I don't care, I'm just going to eat it." No one is saying you need to deprive yourself but you do need to consider your choices carefully. Sometimes just a bite of a dessert does the trick. Sometimes a half portion of a favorite food hits the spot. And sometimes waiting a few extra days to go to a favorite restaurant makes you enjoy it all the more. Delaying gratification is one way that you recover your power and become the one who controls what and how much you eat.
