Day #29- Resist Food Pushers

Think about this:
Why is it more important for me to please others than to do what is best for me? Will I really offend someone if I don't eat their food, or will they even remember in the future? It's probably not a big deal.

1. Create a sense of entitlement about turning down requests to eat. Think about the costs of accepting the offer.
2. Prepare an initial response. "No thank you. It looks so delicious, but I'm fine."
3. Visualize my plan of action. Who is most likely to push food on me and in what atmosphere? (Practice in mind ahead of time)

CREDIT: I cut the amount of food I normally eat on our date to about 1/3 last night.
