YOU CAN THINK YOURSELF THIN

Here's a novel weight-loss strategy. Before you take one single bite, think about your last meal -- every detail. It may sound silly, but there's science behind the idea.

People in a study who thought about their last meal before snacking munched less. So before your next nibble, picture your lunch plate. Mind over MatterIt made no difference how tempting the treat. When people were asked to remember what they had for lunch that day prior to eating a popcorn snack, they ate less of the munchy stuff -- regardless of whether it was seasoned or served plain. All of which suggests that appetite may be linked to food memory cues.

Daily Strength for the Dieter:

Give yourself some superhuman willpower with these tricks for resisting dietary temptations:

1. Scrap the three squares . . . and eat smaller, more frequent meals. This will speed up your metabolism….keep fueling the engine – and it will burn off the fat.

2. Take a nap. Sleep deprivation can cause one to over-compensate with food – it’s comforting.

3. Drink lots of water. It may sound strange but many times we misinterpret feelings of thirst as feelings of hunger. Drink water first, and then if you’re still hungry, have a healthy snack of fruit or veggies.
