Controlling your eating starts with understanding how different foods affect your body and distinguishing between fuel and entertainment foods. Fuel foods nourish and energize you, while entertainment foods are often indulged in for taste or comfort rather than nutritional value. Create a personal strategy that focuses on building up healthy, nourishing habits, integrating more fuel foods into your diet. Then, practice being the persona you aspire to be—a person who makes balanced, mindful food choices. This practice involves mindful eating, listening to your body's hunger and fullness cues, and choosing foods that serve your health and wellness goals. By consistently embodying this persona, you gradually transform your relationship with food, making control a natural part of your eating habits.
