The ultimate question that you may never ask yourself. Too often we eat because of a feeling, a memory or a need that has nothing to do with our hunger.
This is not good, right? This is what gives you extra weight to carry around. If your body isn’t hungry, no matter what you think the food may do for you, it will always be extra food that you don’t need.
And extra food is always stored as fat. Period.
So, if you want to lose that extra weight, you need to start questioning yourself before you eat without hunger.
And a good way to do that is to ask: “Will eating this be worth it?”
That will require you to look ahead into the future and think about how you will feel after you eat this thing.
What do you hope eating now will do for you? What are you hoping to accomplish by eating right now?
I want you to learn to look ahead and make your decision about whether to eat based on the results you’ll get. The consequences you’re creating. Because that is the reality.
And rather than just feel bad after you eat something you shouldn’t have, let’s get in the habit of deciding whether this food, these bites, are worth it to you.
That is the question I want you to ask yourself if you want to eat when you aren’t hungry: “Will eating this be worth it?”
