  • Have a banana and water in the morning
  • Sniff a piece of fruit (an apple or even some peppermint)
  • Eat like a king at breakfast, a prince at lunch, pauper at dinner

  • Tie a piece of ribbon around your waist before going out for dinner…or tighten your belt!
  • Put a mirror in front of you as you eat…this will make you more conscious!
  • Add more C’s to your meals — chili peppers, cayenne, cumin, coriander/cilantro, cardamom, cinnamon, or curry !
  • Fast every other day, this helps reset your stomach for better digestion
  • Eat a sandwich instead of a full-on meal (without side dishes)
  • Go Bento … only eat what you can fit inside a bento box

  • Focus on five colours…green, yellow, orange, red, and brown (includes meat, bread, or even tofu)
  • Eat group style or share a plate with a friend!
  • Immediately pack away half the portion for later
  • Occupy your mind by exercising, chatting with a friend, getting involved in volunteer work!

  • DON’T FEEL GUILTY… ironically by feeling guilty, you’ll eat more next time!
