Lose Weight By Thinking Of Food!

Here's an extremely simple and effective way for all of you to stick to a healthy eating plan, 90% of the time. It involves no calorie counting and no weighing - just good, old fashioned common sense.

Now this may prove to be far too simplistic for many of you, but let's face it: the simpler it is, the more chance you have of doing it!

OK, I want you to think of every piece of food that you see and touch as one of 2 things - GOOD or BAD. I told you this was going to be simple. Review your current goals. For many of you, that goal will be weight loss, increased energy and improved health. Lodge those goals firmly at the forefront of your mind.

Now, next time you reach for something to eat, ask yourself one question:

"Will this food help bring me closer to reaching my goal?"

If you believe it will, then go ahead and eat it. You've decided that that food is GOOD. Enjoy! If you decide otherwise, note it as BAD, then either give it a wide berth and choose an alternative, or eat it in very small proportions. For those of you that find it hard to resist temptation, giving it a wide berth will prove to be more successful...

Using this method of food choice, you have to believe that there are no 'in-between' foods. What you choose to eat is either GOOD or BAD. 'In-between' gives you one heck of a leeway in the direction of success or disaster, usually the latter. If you want to control your weight and look tip-top you have to start questioning your food choices.

You already have the knowledge to know what is generally good and what is generally bad for you.

Mentally process everything put in front of you in a split second. By simplifying nutrition down to this simple equation you can make dramatic improvements in the way you eat, and avoid a lot of nutritional confusion, while starting to curb mindless eating. Just remember; if you answer 'BAD' and eat it anyway, you only have yourself to blame!
