Holiday Diet Tips!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here is a very simple way to lose weight, drop pounds, or shed the excess layers of adipose tissue (call it what you like).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s called the 3-Bite Diet (a.k.a. 3-Bite Rule)<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0 It\u2019s simple, easy and guilt-free.\u00a0 And … the 3-Bite Tip<\/strong> should come in handy come the holiday season, which is right around the corner. (Be sure to file in in your Holiday Tip File!)<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

People tell me that when the holidays come, they just can\u2019t say \u201cNo!\u201d to the Halloween Candy, the Thanksgiving pies, the Christmas cookies, Eggnog, Fruit Cake, et cetera.\u00a0 And I say to them, \u201cThat\u2019s okay.\u201d\u00a0 And It IS okay to \u201cindulge\u201d and enjoy your favorite foods; the cakes, pastries and potatoes; the cookies, candy and ice cream; the pasta, bread and butter \u2013 if you practice<\/em><\/strong> the 3-Bite Rule<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the SKINNY on the 3-Bite Diet!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Your favorite holiday foods don\u2019t have to be off limit. No food will make you gain weight unless you eat too much of it. A simple way to enjoy your holiday treats is to eat them in smaller portions.<\/p>\n

When you take the first bite, generally you are fully present (because you\u2019re so excited to bite into that food that you\u2019ve been salivating over)<\/em> \u2013 and when fully present, you are able to taste 100% of the food.\u00a0\u00a0 When you take a second bite, you are able to taste 50%; third bite is 25% and, yes, exactly – by the time you get to the 4th bite it is pretty much over.<\/p>\n

True enough?\u00a0 First bites are the best; 2nd<\/sup> bites are the second best and it\u2019s downhill from there.\u00a0 So \u2013 why not practice the 3-Bite Diet Rule<\/strong> and STOP @ 3<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

If you just can\u2019t say \u201cno,\u201d say \u201c3 small bites\u201d please.\u00a0 And then \u2026
\n… Put the fork down and push away from the table!<\/p>\n

Save the 3-Bite Rule in Your Holiday TIP Folder! Don’t have a Holiday TIP Folder?\u00a0 Then make one!!! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Spread the word \u2026 NOT the icing,<\/p>\n
