This week's principle is all about feeling our satiety signals. And responding to them. I was very hesitant about doing this principle so early in the process. It is the one I crashed on the last time I tried. I rushed into this principle as I would in a new diet. I couldn't reject the diet mentality, and I searched for a way to lose weight, and then I found this principle. I thought: that's it. All I need to do is practice stopping in the middle of my meals (if I feel full), and that's it. It will start feeling natural after a while. Fake it till you make it. Well, it did not work. 

The lesson I learned: this principle is not about committing to stop when you feel full in the middle of the meal. This is about a commitment to mindful eating, being in check with our body signals of satiety and taste. This time around, I will not try to stop. I will focus on undistracted  mindful eating. I will try to take the time for my meals, and pay attention to how food feels in my mouth, and to how my body responds to it.
