Lose Weight By Listening to Your Body!By: Kathy Smith
What's great about "I spy" is the way it trains the eye. Instead of focusing on just the gray rock, you learn to see its rust-colored veins. Instead of a flower's blue petals, you also notice its yellow pistil. And just as it is critical to develop this keener awareness in the visual world, so too must we develop it when it comes to our relationship with food. Unfortunately, most people don't connect eating with the way they feel physically and mentally, unless they're coping with indigestion. While they wouldn't dream of putting anything less than the highest-octane gasoline into their car's tank, they don't seem to realize that their bodies also knock and ping from inferior fuel.
Recently a friend complained to me about being overweight. Joanne said she was unable to control her eating, especially in the evenings. "I've never had good willpower," she moaned. But the truth is that her eating and weight problems didn't stem from a lack of willpower. In fact, she has pretty good willpower, especially earlier in the day. Typically, Joanne said, she would nibble a piece of toast for breakfast and have a small salad with vinaigrette dressing for lunch. page 1 of 3 | Next Page
