Watch what you eat.
I know, I know, its holiday season. The season for stuffing (ourselves more than the turkey), it only comes once a year, its time to celebrate etc etc.
But..
Remember the Oprah show, where she featured that book about french women not being fat? Remember the secret?
Well here it is again:
Eat anything you like, don't look at the fat content, calorie count or any of that. Just enjoy your food. Only eat a little bit differently.
Savour the taste of the food. Eat it first with your eyes, so make sure it is well presented. Take a small portion at a time into your mouth, and let the taste and texture become an experience. Don't gulp it down as if there were no tomorrow.
There is plenty of food for everyone in most households, so there is no need to shovel it down.
Chew each morsel at length, so that you may extract the maximum pleasure from the taste and aroma. Try different combinations of foods, experience new taste creations. Take the time to enjoy the food.
When you eat in this manner, you are actually able to make the whole eating experience into a socially enjoyable event. It is not just a matter of eating for survival, it is eating for pleasure. But eating for pleasure intelligently.
Now here's the problem!
We humans can never get enough.
Let me explain. When you have just eaten a delicious dessert, what do you feel like now? Having another one of course.
So if you still feel like a dessert after just having had a dessert, why bother to have one in the first place. Just don't bother with it, and the problem is solved - right. If it were that simple.
However, as you can see, its a mental issue. Which, as difficult as the dilema seems, makes the solution obvious.
Decide what you want to do, and let the decision make you happy, and not the dessert. The dessert cannot make you happy, as you will always want more of it. It becomes unfulfilling by its very nature.
Don't get me wrong, I love great tasting food, but I'm also smart enough to know that gorgeing myself with food will not bring me happiness.
So go along, eat and enjoy your food, but do it in moderation, in the knowledge that you have the ability to derive your happines from other sources as well.
Do enjoy your food, and remember to keep on loving
