Research recently published in the Journal of Obesity reveals that treating yourself for behavioral changes (i.e. chewing slowly, using small plates, keeping your house stocked with the ‘right’ stuff) may ultimately help you to lose more weight than rewarding yourself based on the number on the “Scales of Injustice.”
Without the behavioral changes – without creating new healthy habits that are deeply embedded into your body, mind and soul – you may lose it and find it again. Your behavior and thinking is what will see you straight through dieting to permanent weight loss.
Here follow a few of Our Lady of Weight Loss’s favorite rewards. Feel free to note your favorite non-food reward below! The more we share, the better!
