This Sparked Me!

I used to dive into purchases as soon as I got home from the store & hit buffets like a wild woman. Then it occurred to me- this wasn't the last time I would ever eat this stuff & the food would still be there tomorrow. Repeating this "motto" to myself really helped me learn to eat in moderation.
