Diet Essentials
July 4, 2008
Having compassion starts and ends with having compassion for all those unwanted parts of ourselves. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy.

- Avoid feast-and-famine eating. It fundamentally alters the body's ability to sense and respond to satiety signals. Eat regular meals.
- Eat moderately from all food groups. Do not eliminate fats or carbohydrates, but don't overindulge on them, either.
- Know when you are stressed and plan other ways to manage it besides eating.
- Avoid fast-food chains. They're not only calorie dense, they actively stimulate brain hunger, creating a double-barreled assault on regulatory mechanisms.
- If you start gaining weight, push yourself to increase energy expenditure by exercising, even though you don't feel like it.
