Mum's sentences...
Your mum said,
"Clean your plates and finish up your food!"
Being pushed to polish up every single morsel
of food on your plate teaches you to ignore natural
signs of fullness and cause you to overeat.
Try this!
Downsize to a smaller plate or break down your
meal servings into smaller portions -- it'll help limit
your food intake with no additional effort.
Your mum said,
"Celebrate that A with a sundae"
Kids who are rewarded and soothed with food
are more likely to binge eat as adults.
Try this!
Say no to bingeing by finding another activity
to take your mind off food. Regular exercise also
helps boost your mood and ease anxiety.
Your mum said,
"Snacking is bad for you!"
Not being able to satisfy a craving may lead you
to go overboard when you cave in.
Try this!
Snack to avoid hunger but pay attention to what
you're snacking on. Pick a snack between the
100-200 calorie range, like wholegrain bread or
a low-fat power bar.
