Day 17 - End Overeating
There are two ways that qualify as overeating:
1) If you eat any food in a greater quantity than you had planned.
2) If you feel full partway through your meal but continue to finish it anyway.
Today’s exercise is to practice not overeating, by purposely putting more food on your plate than you plan to eat. It is suggested that you put something on your plan in a larger portion than you would normally eat, and something you’re not supposed to eat. Then eat only the food on your plan.
As you have the meal, give yourself credit for not eating the food. When you’re finished either throw away or save the extra food for another meal. If it was easy to do this task, you might never need to repeat it. If it was difficult, Beck wants you to give yourself credit and repeat it until it becomes easy.
Do you think the exercise of putting more food on your plate than you plan to eat is easy or difficult?
Which of the two ways do/did you tend to overeat? How do you combat this tendency?
