Perhaps it&#8217;s time to take a look at our methodology and make some adjustments!!!<br \/>\n<strong>Our Lady of Weight Loss&#8217;s Top 11 Eating Styles<\/strong> &#8211; yes, I did say that there are 10, but here, today, Our Lady of Weight Loss, the patron saint of permanent fat removal is suggesting an 11th!<br \/>\n1. <strong>The Unconscious Eater:<\/strong> If you find yourself covered in cookie crumbs, and do not have any memory of eating cookies, you are an UNCONSCIOUS EATER. WAKE UP! Be in the here and now.<br \/>\n2. <strong>Gulp n&#8217; Go:<\/strong> Are you always on the run, doing the ole&#8217; GULP n&#8217; GO? Sit down and take a moment. Please.<br \/>\n3.<strong> Food Architect:<\/strong> You are a FOOD ARCHITECT if you sculpt mountains of mashed potatoes, arrange broccoli in and around them like trees, and layer slices of meat until you&#8217;ve created a high-rise apartment building. While I admire your creativity, play with Legos instead!<br \/>\n4. <strong>Assembly-Line Eater:<\/strong> You are an ASSEMBLY-LINE EATER if you load-up another fork full while still chewing. Put the fork down in between bites.<br \/>\n5. <strong>Never Say, &#8220;No, Thank You.&#8221;:<\/strong>  Do you have a NEVER SAY, &#8220;NO, THANK YOU&#8221; policy in place? Afraid you might offend someone? Time for a re-write.<br \/>\n6. <strong>If It&#8217;s FREE, It&#8217;s for ME:<\/strong>  Do you exclaim, &#8220;IF IT&#8217;S FREE, IT&#8217;S FOR ME!&#8221; when you see free food tastings and samplings at the supermarket? Eat before food shopping and recommit to your goals before you head out.<br \/>\n7. <strong>Closet Eater:<\/strong> You are a CLOSET EATER if you keep a mini-fridge in your coat closet and visit it nightly. Come on out of the closet and join the rest of us. It&#8217;s safe out here.<br \/>\n8.<strong> Speed Eater:<\/strong> If your friends suggest that you challenge the Japanese world speed-eating champion who swallowed a total of 53 1\/2 hot dogs, and their accompanying buns, in just 12 minutes, then you are a SPEED EATER. I&#8217;m gagging just thinking about it.<br \/>\n9. <strong>Beige-Eater:<\/strong> If potatoes, pasta and mac and cheese are your main stay, then you are a BEIGE-eater. Add red peppers, strawberries, green beans, and bright blueberries to your palate . . . NOW.<br \/>\n10. <strong>Fried:<\/strong>  You are FRIED if you think &#8216;fried&#8217; is a food group. Now you know better!<br \/>\nAnd now, on behalf of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\">Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a>, I would like to introduce an <strong>11th Style of Eating<\/strong>, coming to you at the 11th hour, so to speak.<br \/>\n11. <strong>Healthy, Plain n&#8217; Simple<\/strong>:  Just for a moment try on &#8216;Healthy&#8217; as your eating style!  How does it fit?  Most people do not ingest enough vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals on a daily basis.  Because our nutrient needs are not met, we lose control and cravings kick in.<br \/>\nHealthy isn&#8217;t complicated.  In fact, it&#8217;s simple.  All you need to do is  eat more &#8211; more fruits and vegetables &#8211; more colorful plants.  Not only will you lose weight; your health will also dramatically improve.<br \/>\n<em>Here&#8217;s some food for thought!<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center\">2\/3 of Americans are overweight<br \/>\n1\/3 of Americans are classified as morbidly obese<br \/>\n50 percent of Americans die of heart attacks and strokes<br \/>\n28 million Americans suffer from the crippling pain of osteoarthritis<br \/>\n35 million Americans suffer from chronic headaches  (source: Joel Fuhrman, M.D., author of Eat for Health)<\/div>\n<p>Take one step toward health.
