Come

Habits, good
or bad, are formed by repetition. Eating habits are no
exception. If you are in the habit of snacking when you
watch TV, you were reinforcing that habit until finally it
became a part of you.
Other habits are formed in the same
way. Some of these habits are eating while reading, eating
the minute you enter the house, eating when the kids come
in from school, eating when you come in from a date, or
eating while cooking dinner.
We also find that certain moods and circumstances cause us
to eat even if we are not hungry. For example anger,
boredom, fatigue, happiness, loneliness, the kids are
finally in bed, our spouse is out for the evening or out of
town, nervousness, anxiety, our spouse brings home candy or
ice cream, etc... all may trigger an eating response.
The
list is endless. Habits are hard to break. We must not only
break old habits, but we must make our goal to form new ones
in the same manner through repetition.
Make some daily
commitments. Work to meet these commitments each day whether
you feel like it or not. Your daily commitments will help
you form good habits. Remember.. "It is easier to act
your way into a new way of feeling than it is to feel your
way into a new way of acting."
Resisting temptation is difficult. However, if you succeed
in resisting the first time, it becomes easier to resist the
next time. Before long, you will have formed the good habit
of resisting temptation every time it confronts you. If you
yield to that temptation, you will find it easier to yield
the next time.
Because of the human weaknesses mentioned, we must use what
has become known among weight control groups as behavior
modification. It simply means changing your behavior.
