I’m like you, Scott, if that box of cookies, stack of crackers, bag of potato chips, or bowl of bon bons is in front of me, I’m going to eat the whole darn thing. But, if I just grab a Twix at 7-11 once a week, I’m okay with that.

If it is in the house and I decide to have some, I have to put it in a snack size bowl or something to get the message to my brain that I don’t need to eat the whole thing, the problem there is that I can go back for me, so I also prefer not to have it in the house.

LOL! Love the video Scott. I do have trouble limiting myself to just one of those tiny little chocolate bars…so I have a couple…okay, okay, maybe a few, at at time, lol!

But yes, I love the idea of scheduling treats, it makes perfect sense. Gives you something to look forward to, and you’re not making yourself go without so don’t have to say “screw it” and not continue on with healthy eating just so you can indulge.

Good stuff Scott

Hmmmm…scheduling treats. I like that!

I really like your advice of not just relying on willpower. It’s a much more positive way to look at what we should put into our bodies, as opposed to focusing on the negative and what we shouldn’t eat.

Thanks Scott!
