I f you beat yourself up whenever you eat something that’s not part of your diet, you could be dooming your weight-loss efforts.You’ve decided you have no control over your body, so you give up.
Snap out of it. Block those dark thoughts.
Overeating at one meal isn’t the end of your diet, and it certainly doesn’t make you a bad person.
“It’s just one day. It’s not a moral failure,” says Jill Weisenberger, registered dietitian nutritionist.
You’re more likely to succeed with your diet if you eliminate any emotional value food has for you.
“As soon as people get rid of the ‘good and bad’ attitude toward food, it is so liberating.They do end up eating better,”Weisenberger says.
