Keep these tips in mind to get the most out of your clean -eating plan, and to see the best results!
#1 Stop eating when you are full:
Use the hunger and fullness scale before and during your meals ( 1 being very hungry , 7 being comfortably full). Learn to recognize stages of fullness by paying attention to your body, and stop when you are moderately full ( not stuffed!), about half way up the fullness scale.
#2 Focus on each bite, not the whole meal:
Pause with each bite to discern the different flavors and textures. This mindset will allow you to stop eating once you reach the bite that makes you feel full, rather than feeling the need to complete the whole meal.
#3 Minimize Distractions:
Don't eat in front of the TV, while driving or standing. Sit at a table, giving your meal your full attention.
#4 Write it Down:
Keep a log of what you eat and how you feel while you are eating. This will allow you to see how your surroundings, time of day, and the company you keep ( friends and family you eat with) effect how much you eat and what types of food you may be consuming. Recognize and eliminate your triggers.
