Be mindful of how you eat!!!




Yikes this list hits close to home.....I think I need to be more mindful of all of these.....
  1.  Shift out of autopilot eating and start tracking. (I am using My Fitness Pal app)
  2.  Make the healthy choice the easy choice. (easy access for the good foods, limited access for the not so good foods)
  3. Buy smaller plates. (yup size does matter)
  4. Eat when you are eating. (don't be a distracted eater, eat and do nothing else)
  5. Take 5 (breaths, that is)! (Just breath before you start eating)
  6. Commit to slowing down. (aim for 20 - 30 mins to eat...not 5 mins)
  7. Savour each bite. (tune in all your senses)
  8. Mindfully check in. (try to stop eating before you feel full)
  9. Adopt an attitude of gratitude. (be thankful)
