I. love. candy.

I have figured out that I like to eat, not because I'm hungry, but because I like the taste/flavor of things.

I once heard someone say that they eat food they love, and then when they've chewed it all up, they actually spit the food out. At the time I thought it was crazy, but now I can understand why they did it.

However, that does not help with the self-control and it's just strange.

I'm sure that a lot of people have this taste/flavor problem and that is why on Weight Watchers, they make you track your hunger. Before each meal you are suppose to record how hungry you are. After each meal, you're suppose to track how you feel, still hungry, satisfied, full, etc.

Solution: Before putting food in my mouth, decide why I want to eat it. Am I hungry? Bored? Mad? Don't eat for boredom or emotion. Eat because you're hungry.

Always,
