Eat Like A Skinny Person

This Sparked Me!

Realize that the difference between a thin person and a person with weight problems is that the skinny person doesn't beat herself up after eating off track. When eating chocolate or pizza or other, enjoy it. Don't guilt yourself into a binge. Skinny people often eat chocolate!!

    It isn't only that. Skinny people choose the chicken breast when you go out for dinner. The salad with dressing on the side. The steamed seasonal veggies instead of fries. Eat like a skinny person and you'll *be* a skinny person.

    Eating like a skinny person is about choosing the better foods, planning ahead, shopping for the fresh fruits and veggies. It is also about portion control, weighing and measuring all that you eat. It is also about accountability . When going out to eat check for an online menu before going and ask to have of the foods boxed up to take home before it is brought out to you. The portions when we eat out are so huge.
