Eating Your Way to Slim

As I prepare to eat Thanksgiving dinner, I think about how much I appreciate that I love to eat!
In the past couple of months, more people have told me how much they love food. For most, someone made some kind of comment alluding to them loving too much to eat which lead them to be ashamed of it.
God set it up that eating is pleasurable! Who are we to negate that? We can use loving to eat to our advantage.
If we really love to eat, then let’s receive the absolute most from our eating experiences. That means being present in the moment to thoroughly taste the food and being tuned-in to all the sensations in the mouth and the body. The idea is also to be a foodie, eat quality food that we love and have a keen discerning palate like a food critic or a connoisseur.
One woman recalled that when she was slim, she was in Europe, buying fresh and local food each day and small amounts of especial items such as gourmet cheese. She said, “I am going to eat my way to being slim again.”
Yes, that’s what people with no food/weight issues do! They eat what they want, relax and enjoy their food and then feel the enoughness. Ahh!
