Day 12 - Easy is on the way out

For the past few days I have made this seem easy...and for the most part it has.  I realize how much I just "pop" in my mouth and eat of my kids plates. I think I'm having more trouble with throwing away food from my kids plate than saying no to other foods.  Yes its easy when you take everything out of your house that is bad, keep yourself in your house for the majority of the time, and spend countless hours researching recipes, cooking, and ah hem, blogging. But now real life is about to set in...eating out, parties at friend's houses, and staying over at someone else's house and eating their food at their times.

Having a full belly is my #1 tip. Its easy to say no to food when I'm full. Second would be have something ready to eat near me at all times. Third is meal planning. I need to work on this a bit more even when I'm not dieting. I try and strive for Breakfast, snack, Lunch, snack, Dinner, but as you can see its not the norm.
