The concept of writing down the calorie count of the food you consume as you have it throughout the day surely helps you keep track. But, more importantly, it stops your brain from craving more when you’ve hit your daily intake. Your brain can’t argue with you about being hungry – you’ve got the numbers to prove you don’t need it.
The idea of noting three things you’re grateful for every day is a brilliant practice. It makes you feel good, sure, but it stops the brain from focusing on the bad or complaining about the rough parts of the day; it can’t, you’ve just forced it to acknowledge the good things.
The more brain stops you can put in place, the more fulfilled you can feel at the end of every day.
