A Different Kind of Strategy...

Looking at Pictures of Your Favorite Foods While You're Eating Well!  Hate broccoli or spinach? You can learn to love it with a quick mind trick: Check out an image of a food that makes your mouth water (cupcakes, pizza, a big bowl of creamy pasta). It activates an area of your brain that relays messages about taste-and tells you whatever you're eating (say, a big salad) is more enjoyable than you'd regularly find it, according to a 2012 study from researchers in Switzerland. I thought this was interesting!  I might have to try this at my next meal, unfortunately - there really isn’t any  food I don’t enjoy!

Until Monday - Keep thinking veggies and protein!
