Before you eat, ask yourself, “How truly hungry am I?” Then put your hunger on a scale from 1 to 5. This can help you become conscious of the link between your mind, body, and your eating habits.<\/p>\n
Five is super starving. One is not hungry at all, or already full. Three is average. If you’re only at a “3,” then eat accordingly – only an average (small) amount. OK? Or perhaps wait a couple of hours.<\/p>\n
If you’re super starving (“5”) then you should have a little more than average–but never stuff yourself. Now, if you are really not hungry or still full from a snack, then do not eat! Or only have a few bites. It’s simple. <\/p>\n
If you’re not that hungry, at, say a “1,” then just don’t eat. Do something else. Read. Go for a walk. Hug someone!<\/p>\n
Of course, thinking about and identifying your emotions before and after you eat will also help you determine how much and when to have your next meal.<\/p>\n
Above all, asking God for help will be your best and ultimate guide to your deepest satisfaction and conscious behavior.<\/p>\n
