Making Good Decisions

MayaNelson

This morning on NPR I heard an interview about a Northwestern researcher who was looking at how people make decisions about what to eat, when to eat, how much to eat. Interesting take-aways
- We make about 200 decisions every day regarding food!
- People on "diets" tended to underestimate the calories of foods
- When we see salad or something healthy next to something "bad" the "bad thing becomes less "bad (and we eat more!)

Wow - so many chances to make the right choice.
Help!

Yes sometimes it does feel like the world's odds are against you when you're trying to lose weight, that's why ya gotta build up a defense team for support and fight back!
