{HMW} Why that first bite always tastes better than the last

Dear Reader, Remember that iconic Alka-Seltzer commercial? "I can't believe I ate the whole thing." Most of us have been there, eating past fullness, maybe even past pleasure, knowing exactly how we'll feel later but somehow unable to stop in the moment. There's actually a biological reason this happens. Your body has built-in mechanisms designed to help you know instinctively when to stop eating—but when we eat quickly or distractedly, we completely bypass them. Here are 5 reasons why eating...

{HMW} The 5-Second Gap Between "I Should Eat" and Actually Eating

Dear Reader How many times have you eaten something and realized halfway through that you weren't even hungry? You were stressed, or bored, or it was just "time to eat," so you ate. There seemed to be no conscious decision, no awareness of what your body actually needed—just the habitual motion of hand to mouth. The gap between the impulse to eat and the act of eating is usually so small you don't even notice it exists. But that gap is where all your power resides. Here's the practice: Before...

{HMW} Habit stacking: mindful eating without the mental effort

Dear Reader, You already know what mindful eating looks like. Pause before meals. Check in with hunger. Eat without your phone. Stop when you're satisfied. The problem tends to be the gap between what you know you should do and what you actually do when you're rushing through lunch at your desk or standing at the counter eating leftovers straight from the container. Here's the thing: willpower isn't the answer. Your brain doesn't need more reminders to "be more mindful." It needs a trigger...

{HMW} The Observation Period January Actually Needs

Dear Reader, It's early January and you might be feeling physically uncomfortable, out of sync with your usual eating rhythm, or just... off. The instinct is to swing hard in the opposite direction—restrict everything, punish yourself for December, start some intense plan to "undo the damage." But your body doesn't need punishment. It needs reconnection. After weeks of different eating patterns, your body is probably craving something lighter—not because salads are morally superior, but...

{HMW} Before You Make That Food Resolution, Read This...

Dear Reader, New Year's Eve is almost here, and with it comes the pressure to create dramatic eating resolutions. "Starting January 1st, I'll be perfect with food." "New year, new me! this time I'll really change." But here's the truth: the calendar changing doesn't magically create different results. Real, lasting change with food comes from a completely different approach than New Year's resolutions. Start Where You Are: Don't wait for January 1st or Monday or next month. Any moment can be...
