Thought for the Day--February 19, 2011: Pre-Eating
If you are planning to attend a major event involving loads of good food-- too much of a good thing--try "pre-eating." Before leaving for your event, eat a piece of fruit, a raw veggie, or a small cube of cheese. This may seem counter intuitive, but if you hold the wolf at bay, you are likely to make healthier choices and eat less food. Let's face it: when you are overly hungry, it's difficult to curb that impulse to chow down at the buffet table.
