I think one of the biggest differences between how I used to eat and how I eat now is food prep. I used to wait until I was hungry and ask myself what I wanted to eat. Yesterday I made a turkey meatloaf with four portions. Tonight I made a chicken dish...also four portions. I cut up peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, hearts of palm and carrots, enough for several salads. I also have cut broccoli ready to be steamed and an entire watermelon cut up in the fridge. Snacks and meals are planned. I may not stick to the plan every day but I have made a commitment not to waste food. Therefore when I do deviate from the plan I have food in the fridge to get right back on the plan for the next meal. No excuses. I feel pretty good today. Everything I ate came out of my kitchen. The goal is to remember that feeling for the next day.
