I eat when my brain starts thinking about food, not when my stomach starts growling. I call it "brain hungry". And my throat gets hungry to swallow something. It happens every 2 hours. I must learn to wait 4 hrs to eat again. I must use self talk and chew sugarless gum when I get brain hungry....then I will be under self control and lose more weight. Instead of saying to myself "I am not hungry" I should say "I am full, too full to eat anything". Use positive affirmations instead of saying anything negative. This is my good idea. Does anyone else get "brain hungry"?

if he knows the 'why' in his life he will not be put off by the 'how'...
have no idea who said the above or where i remember it from...but it seemed to fit with with what you said about being mindful & positive.
