You say to eat "mindfully." What does that mean?
Eat slowly and pay attention to what you're eating. When you eat slowly, your brain has more time to register that you're full. Also, when you notice and enjoy every mouthful, you feel more satisfied. As an exercise, try eating several meals without reading, watching TV or using the computer. Once it becomes a habit for you to savor every bite, you can add other activities back in.
How long does it take to change your way of thinking about food?
The book includes 42 tasks and skills—one a day for six weeks. There are also exercises at the end of each chapter to increase your resolve and learn to recognize and deal with sabotaging thoughts. I know a dieter will succeed when she goes from saying "I want that cookie" to saying "I'm so glad I didn't eat it." The good news is, it gets easier over time.
