Enjoy occasional treats in moderation without guilt or restriction from "summary" of The End of Dieting by Dr. Joel Fuhrman
When it comes to enjoying occasional treats, it is important to approach them with a balanced mindset. Guilt and restriction should not be a part of the equation. Rather, the key is moderation. This means indulging in treats from time to time, but doing so in a mindful and controlled manner. By allowing yourself the occasional treat without feeling guilty, you can avoid the all-or-nothing mentality that often leads to overindulgence. Instead of viewing treats as forbidden fruit, you can enjoy them as a normal part of life, to be savored in moderation. Restricting yourself too much can have negative consequences, such as increased cravings and a tendency to binge on forbidden foods. By allowing yourself the occasional treat without restrictions, you can actually have better control over your eating habits in the long run. It is important to remember that treats are just that - treats. They should not be a regular part of your diet, but rather something to be enjoyed in moderation. By viewing treats in this way, you can maintain a healthy relationship with food and avoid the cycle of guilt and restriction that often accompanies diets.- The key is balance. By allowing yourself the occasional treat without guilt or restriction, you can enjoy a more sustainable approach to eating that focuses on overall health and well-being. So go ahead, enjoy that slice of cake or scoop of ice cream, and savor every bite without feeling guilty.
