Record what, when, and why you eat or drink. Use a food log to pinpoint eating behavior you want to change. Change doesn't mean eliminating the foods you like. Just focus on moderation and balance. List concrete steps to achieve your goals.
Permanent change takes time, commitment, and encouragement.
Monitor your progress. If you stray from your food plan, pick up where you left off and start again. Treat yourself with a massage, manicure, game of golf, movie, or new outfit. Reevaluate your plan every month. Include soy and garlic on a regular basis.
