Never on Sunday: Week XII: Putting it Together
http://fitnesssundays.blogspot.com/2010/07/week-xii-putting-it-together.html
Sunday, July 4, 2010. Week XII: Putting it Together. You are complete. It is time to organize all the behavioral changes and choices that you've made these past three months into a Monday through Friday style of living that you can sustain over the long term. As with each of the weekly challenges you've engaged, your weekends are celebratory. Don't binge, but do enjoy the things that you normally restrict during the week. 2 If you put down the fork between bites. 10 When the meal omits starches and dairy.

Sunday, June 27, 2010. Week XI: Starved for Clarity. The first modification is to broaden the definition of clear liquids. Soups are excellent examples. The question is how far to vary from the extreme of drinking only the broth. Vegetable soup makes sense, but the addition of noodles or rice detracts from our aim. Next, you could chose to consume mostly. Not a great match for this challenge. Looking at my week ahead, I plan to make Monday's dinner liquid. On Tuesday I'll omit solid food at lunch....

Never on Sunday: Week VI: Half Way There
http://fitnesssundays.blogspot.com/2010/05/week-half-way-there.html
Sunday, May 23, 2010. Week VI: Half Way There. When rushed at meal time, you can abbreviate the intermission to five minutes instead of ten. Having a to-go container at the table, before you sit down, is a smart addition. Breakfast foods don't divide or travel well. You may want to allot yourself only half a bowl of cereal or half a cup of coffee at a time. After the ten-minute intermission, once the dish gets cold, do you finish the entire portion anyway? Have you discovered a growing sense of control?

Never on Sunday: May 2010

Sunday, May 30, 2010. Week VII: Time After Time. Last week you divided your portions in half. This week we go one step further, shrinking our portions so that we can graze. Our challenge is to eat a palm-sized portion of food every two hours. For those who start their day around 6:00 AM and finish about 8:00 PM that means eating eight small meals. Look at your week in advance. This exercise may not be realistic every day of this week. You can elect to omit certain days from the challenge. Per...You will ...

Thursday, April 29, 2010. Week III: Good Till the Last Bite. In this, our third behavioral experiment we will count the number of bites until we feel full. For our first day, let's just count the solid food. Feel free to go beyond that bite when you register fullness. Just note when it occured and eat all that you want. Finally, admit that you usually fill up around a certain numbers of bites, and discontinue eating when you reach that number. If you require a little notebook to tally bites, then use one.

Never on Sunday: Week X: White Out
http://fitnesssundays.blogspot.com/2010/06/week-x-white-out.html
Sunday, June 20, 2010. Week X: White Out. The next two diets are extreme examples of will power. Neither are realistic or long term ways of eating. Instead they represent opportunities to demonstrate your volition and to modify challenges in ways that will work in your present life. Since adherence to the absolute discipline proposed by this week's diet "White Out" is unlikely to work, might even be unhealthy, you must alter the challenge and adopt it to your needs. Another strategy is to choose just one...

Monday, March 1, 2010. Week II: Look Ma, No Hands! Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art." - Leonardo da Vinci. While chewing, chew. Do not multi-task by preparing your next morsel. Our intention is to bring habitual behavior to consciousness. Perhaps part of the reason that we eat fast is because we get nervous and embarrassed when we don't know what to do with our hands. If all you're drinking at your meals is water, don't bother counting sips. You may notice other activities th...

Wednesday, January 27, 2010. Week I: Written in Stone. The rules for this challenge are extremely simple: If you put it in your mouth, write it down. Most important, observe how knowing that you're going to write it down alters your food choices. Does the food diary impact your eating behavior through the weekend as well? If you observe well, your own heart will answer." - R.A. Schwaller de Lubicz. When you forget your food diary, write the information on a napkin and log it in your journal later. For th...
