The idea that pain, worry and anguish- any negative emotion, really are a result of our minds leaving the present moment and traveling to lament over the past or worry about the future… Buddhists call this monkey mind cause our chattering thoughts jump from topic to topic like a bunch of monkeys swinging from tree to tree. - thoughts got a better life!
Helpful Ways to Shrink Down Portion Sizes:
- Use smaller bowls or plates when eating at home. This will allow you to better decide if you really need another serving (you probably don’t).
- Eat slowly. This will allow your body to decide whether or not it’s full faster, which will prevent you from eating more than you need to.
- Order the smallest size of whatever you’re getting when eating out, ordering at Starbucks, etc. This way, you’re not overdoing it and you’re saving money!
- Share a regular size entree with a friend or date! If the two of you split the bill, you’re both saving money. This also allows you to eat only half of what you normally would, and if you’re eating slowly (and talking with your friend in between bites) you’ll feel just as full as you would if you’d eaten the whole serving yourself.

Add a Healthy Twist!
We don’t know about you, but the warmer months can often mean an upsurge in late-night drive-thru visits- especially after an under-catered party. Just ass a splash of stirred, not shaken alcohol and you have the perfect fat trap. If you feel a take away craving coming on and don’t trust yourself to resist the post-event munchies, create your own guilt-free fast food before you hit the town. You’ll thank yourself the next morning.
Fries:
Use thick cut sweet potatoes, which are rich in vitamin A, to cook up a healthy side of low-GI fries. Sweet potatoes not for you? Before cooking, soak thick cut conventional potatoes in water, this will help keep them crisp and will require less oil to cook. Instead of serving with gravy or tomato sauce, serve with vinegar, which has been shown to reduce the glycemic index of foods containing carbohydrates.
Pizza:
When baking pizza, consider using Lebanese flat bread (or pitta bread) as your base, as it contains less fat than conventional pizza bases. Load up the base with low fat cheese and top with a generous serving of your favourite veggies. Don’t want to settle for a meatless pizza? Choose a lean Italian chicken sausage, which is a low fat substitute for the high fat pork varieties that are often added to pizzas.
Burgers:
Use ready made lean meat hamburger steaks or, for the healthiest alternative, make your own with lean minced beef. Cook at a low heat to keep your low fat hamburger steak juicy and tender and consider using a cooking method that eliminates some of the fat content, such as grilling or broiling.
