Leading nutrition expert and certified diabetes educator Susan Weiner, MS, RDN, CDE, CDN, shares her approach to mindful eating and weight loss. Her tips and tools will help you take charge of food, instead of food taking charge of you! You will learn the power of portion control and tactics for managing indulgences, including the cookies, doughnuts, candy, and ice cream that call your name. More and more studies show when people are taught mindful-eating strategies they learn to tap into what's behind their food choices, and how to make smarter choices. The payoff: improved blood sugar, cholesterol, and weight.
A sneak peek: "There are a number of things that trigger us to eat when we're not hungry. Often, without realizing it, we are looking to counteract feelings of stress, bordeom, or exhaustion with food," says DiabeticLifestyle Medical Advisory Board Member Susan Weiner. "The next thing you know, you've eaten a mega-size muffin or a half bag of chips, and now you're beating yourself up for it." The good news, says Weiner, is that "there is a much better, more effective way to manage your relationship with food that puts you in the driver's seat."
