Appetite
or Hunger?
The
next time that you pull up a chair at the
table, before you put a morsel into your
mouth, and before you even say the blessing,
ask yourself, "Am I hungry OR am I
eating just because?"
Many
times we eat just because it's meal time.
Or, we may eat because we just feel
like eating something tasty. Or, we may
be acting polite by eating something that
we really don't even want to eat, but we
do such so we won't hurt the other person's
feelings. Here are some ways to deal
with appetite:
- Choose
only to eat when you are hungry.
- Don't
wait until you are famished to eat,
or it's almost certain that you will
overeat.
- If
someone insists that you try something,
you can resist and still be polite.
Simply tell them that you are
not hungry right now, and that you'll
save the goody for when you are.
- If
you are eating because you just want
something tasty, pause and rethink your
Diet Strategy. When you get hungry,
then enjoy BUT be sure to pre-determine
how much you are going to eat so that
you won't overdo.
