Train Your Brain

I’m a candy kind of girl. Although, I still love sugar my desire for it has died greatly in the last two years. I can’t eat nearly the amount I use to, which I believe part was nature and part was nurture. Regardless loosing that sweet tooth was not an easy task. Here’s a great article on training your brain to stop eating naughty . . .

The 4 C's

You’re sitting at home on a Sunday watching tv and all of a sudden this little urge comes over you, you know that feeling deep within you? WE’ve all been there, you can’t seem to fight it and it’s so powerful all you can do is think about it. It won’t go away. So you succumb, the craving wins. You think just ons as you meander over to the pantry and grab a cookie, cracker, a bite of cereal, or that leftover croissant you got from the coffee shop this morning. DON’T DO IT!

Why? Because these are 4 C’s that you should send away. I don’t care if you send them off with the proper brush off of c u next tuesday. Fact is, these are snacks that make you hungrier. These processed sugary carbs are what I like to call a rebound snack and send you right back for more naughty, and I do not mean the good kind . . . Clearly!
