Control Mindless Eating: Keep A Food Journal

Nutritionists, dieticians and doctors agree: really thinking about what you’re eating, how much of it you’re eating, and how often your eating makes mindless eating a lot more challenging. It also makes your dietary habits a lot easier to examine and change.

The simplest way to accomplish this is to pick up a pen after you finish eating, every time you finish eating. Record exactly what you ate in your food journal. A food journal can be any kind of bound notebook, journal, notepad, etc., but it should be something that’s easy to examine and track daily, weekly, monthly.

A food journal helps you control mindless eating by knowing exactly what and when you last ate. If it was only a half hour ago, you might want to ask yourself if you’re really hungry, or just bored. If it was two hours ago and you know you’re not having dinner for another two hours, it might be a good time to reach for a low-calorie, healthy snack—a Glenny’s 100-Calorie Blondie or Organic Raspberry Jubilee Marshmallow Treat might just hit the spot.
