When we eat something wait the 20 minutes and concentrate and if we feel about 5 then we are satisfied but when we go to 3 or below then we need to eat and of course anything above 5, stop eating.<BR/><BR/>We need to fill our minds with other things rather than food all the time because I too am guilty of thinking of food all day.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy your day/evening<BR/><BR/>Hugs to you xxpointing the weighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04495225770848740831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421234084288571221.post-45050432131699706332008-01-15T13:28:00.000-05:002008-01-15T13:28:00.000-05:00Wow you're all up in my brain with this post.

She's such a grounded person and she's willing to share her experiences. I just picked up one of his books from the library. Haven't read it yet, but I wanted to see what the buzz was all about. Programs that focus on lifestyle changes and our emotional confrontations always draw my attention. <BR/><BR/>Knowing ourselves and dealing with our mental barriers are the only way to conquer those "bad habits." <BR/>Thanks for sharing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421234084288571221.post-52224384787458261972008-01-15T10:02:00.000-05:002008-01-15T10:02:00.000-05:00I, too, think about my weight much more than I wan...I, too, think about my weight much more than I want to or should.

I've been working on my emotional issues for a while now, and it makes a huge difference.<BR/><BR/>I have now started slowly adopting good habits, without giving up anything at this stage. The progress is slow, but will pick up momentum as soon as I've added a few more good habits. Enough to let go of some bad habits without feeling deprived. The good habits will essentially be crowding out the bad habits. So what if it takes long?<BR/><BR/>I'm going to make an effort to start watching Oprah again!Hanliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16476650601531649816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421234084288571221.post-14795010453766277612008-01-14T22:37:00.000-05:002008-01-14T22:37:00.000-05:00sounds really good.
