Hi,
I have been trying while I am 100% on Jenny Craig food, to replace my old bad habits of eating mindlessly, too fast, etc...
I came across an article that Dr. Ian Smith wrote. He stated that all bad habits have one or more of 3 basic characteristics.
***************
a few familiar forces characterize the majority of bad eating habits:
• A lack of discipline;
• Stress;
• Convenience.
(Read more: http://www.foxnews.c.../#ixzz1YKEtAu6D)
Example - overeating is a lack of discipline.
Guess I find it interesting to see bad habits broken down to just 3 things. And I think the last two play a large part into our society's issue with obesity. Stress from the fast pace and convenience of fast food.
Just "food" for thought.
