If you want to be someone who rarely thinks about food and feels completely in control of what you eat in a way that feels easy, then you have to learn how to adopt the inner psychology and eating habits of a 'naturally thin' person. The glaring difference between the lifestyle of Burned Out Dieter vs the lifestyle of the 'Naturally Thin' is that they're both making drastically different decisions based on their inner psychology and daily eating habits. So for example, a 'naturally thin' person who eats consistent portions at every meal for years is on autopilot. Meanwhile, Dieters who are constantly getting on and off track with their eating — have created a habit of restrict-then-overeat. They also do things like:

• Eat according to calories, how much food is on their plate, and what the clock says
• Clean their plate at every meal
• Consistently eat second servings
• Eat when they're procrastinating, bored, or stressed

So, the question then becomes, how do we choose to do the things that 'naturally thin' people do consistently? The diet industry will tell you that it's about "eating less and moving more" and while that's factually accurate, it's shit advice and only half of the conversation. Everyone already knows what they should be doing to lose weight. The question is WHY aren't they doing it? No one in the diet industry wants to touch this question. It's easier to talk about eating protein, vegetables, and tracking your calories…but it's also why 95% of dieters are failing at long-term weight loss. Answering this question requires understanding how your inner psychology influences your eating behaviors.
