How to Stop Eating When You are Perfectly Fed

Tres speaking in WA with Nancy Marasco


Wouldn't it be great if your body could tell you exactly when to stop eating and even make it so YOU DON'T WANT MORE FOOD?  To permanently eliminate compulsive eating (or binge eating) try this tip: tune in and taste your food.  What I mean is, when you tune in and fully connect mind and body, you experience more pleasure from eating while at the same time you engage your brain instead of "tuning out" or escaping.  This is the daily eating experience for healthy people without food issues.  To get your body talking to you and prompting you to enjoy exactly "enough" at each meal, test drive these three keys:

1) Own your food choice without guilt--you cannot stay present and hear messages from your body if you are ducking guilt about that handful of chips.  There is no bad food.  Even chips are not bad if you have them when your body needs them.
2) Tune in and taste--experience the flavor, texture, freshness, and quality of your food while you ask, "Is it worthy of me?"  You are a Ferrari, not a go-kart.
3) Keep the brain and body talking--while eating consistently inquire if you have had enough food to be perfectly fed.  If you ask this question consistently your body will answer you with a clear message to stop.  You might even experience aversion to eating one more bite.  Aversion is a beautiful thing.

  1. I'd buy an app that tells me to stop eating. I'd go that far because eating is one of my problems. My diet can't stop me from eating. :(
