Another thread about the "don't eat right before bed" rule brought this topic to mind. There are tons of "rules" out there about weight loss, how you should do it, etc...everything from drinking 8 glasses of water a day, to not eating between meals, to skipping dessert, to eating smaller portions. We talk a lot here at 3FC about how we're all different, and what works for one of us may not work for another. In the spirit of that, which "rules" do you NOT follow?
I don't...
Skip dessert! I just make it healthier and low-cal, or buy something portion controlled. I love my dessert.
Set a "cutoff" time for eating. I usually eat something right before bed (and it is usually the dessert mentioned above)
Eat smaller portions the majority of the time (at least, for anything I cook at home). I cook differently so that the foods I eat have less calories for BIG portions...I don't do hungry!
What rules don't work for YOU?
