Dr Chris Steele's PROVEN Fat Farewell Diet Plan - Part 2
HOW TO EATThis section is as vital as Part One, which dealt with what to eat!
Here in Part Two, I’ll be giving you a very simple approach to the psychology of eating, that is ‘How to Eat’, and if you follow these very basic, easy to follow guidelines, you will find that your battle to lose weight will become less of a struggle.
- Before eating any food or meal just stop and ask yourself this basic question…… “Am I really hungry?” If you aren’t truly hungry then maybe you should plan to eat smaller portions as the meal progresses – or maybe even miss out on a course especially the starter.
- Half-way to two-thirds of the way through your meal ask the same question. If you do still feel hungry, then continue and enjoy every morsel. However, if the true answer is ‘No, I don’t still feel hungry?’, then you don’t have to force any more food down your throat. So stop eating and put the food to the side of the plate, enjoy some drinks and just keep the conversation going without drawing attention to the fact that you’ve had enough to eat. Maybe you could pass one of your portions onto someone else who is mad keen on the food you’ve left behind – that’s OK!
- Try to eat your food off small plates, maybe using the side dishes instead of the main course plate. A small plate overflowing with food creates a different effect on the brain – helping you to feel full with smaller portions.
- Whilst eating allow your brain, your sight, your smell and your taste sensations really lap up the experience of food enjoyment. Spend some time thinking about the colours the smells and the tastes of all the food items on the plate before you.
- Finally, don’t rush the meal, eat your food slowly appreciating the full smell and taste of every mouthful – basically just remember to savour the flavour. If you’re on a diet then you must really spend some time truly enjoying the smells and flavours!
Even when you’re on a diet, it’s good to have a treat every so often, so have a little tasty treat now and again. If you’re sticking to this diet and are losing weight then you deserve a treat once in a while!
