Part of the reason I over eat is because of the PLEASURE that comes from consuming the food. But no matter how much you enjoy a certain food, each bite brings less pleasure than the bite before it. There was research showing that if your meal consisted of the same type of flavors, you would eat less. If I remember correctly, the example was using pineapples in every item on the menu. Example: pineapple fried rice paired with pineapple ham and then followed with a plate of pineapples.
In fact there are more details of this diet here: http://www.diettv.com/diets/flavor-point-diet#diet_description
Recently there was also research that proved that you will eat less out of that box of chocolates if you spend some time visualizing yourself eating and enjoying the chocolate. I guess the idea is to dull your desire for that particular food item.
I would like to try this diet, but it seems a bit slow. I need a crash diet to kind of encourage me to start on this journey. I need some ideas on what kind of 1-week crash diet I can try? I'm still nursing so a 1-week juice fast is definitely out of the question!
