Restrictive dieting is a body game that hits us emotionally. Does your body complain? Being
nagged - whether it's physical, like cravings or emotional, like social pressure - is unpleasant and tiring.
When emotional demands override physical needs, the result can be craving junk food, which starts a cycle of binging. Binging is a knee-jerk reaction to stress that fills us with guilt and our body complains with tension, high blood pressure, discomfort, exhaustion, and a general sense of dissatisfaction.
Our bodies don't play games with us. Our body is a vehicle we use to maneuver through our day and our life. Our senses are how we tune-in to our body. Even though noticing what we sense helps us stay on the path of healthy eating choices, when we're trying to watch our weight, working hard, dealing with social stress and don't have a lot of time, it's easy to ignore what we sense.

- Unsweetened frozen blueberries, strawberries, blackberries or raspberries are satisfying for sweet noshing. Berries taste good, and contain anti-oxidants and fiber. Anti-oxidants are good for fighting the effects of air pollution, and fiber keeps us regular.
- Unsweetened frozen cantaloupes or mangoes are also delicious to have on hand.
- I like to freeze seedless grapes for a cool snack.
