Do you like calling a friend? Do you like playing video games? Can you do laundry that you needed to do? Like I said, it doesn't have to be fun, but at least if it's something that gets something done in your life, you're cutting out stress that you would have had later because you were procrastinating on doing laundry.

So this is the way that we make some of the adjustments to the routines to change habits to give us a more productive life. The other thing that you can do that I really like is adjusting your food environment. And you brought up the idea of ice cream. So why don't, if we find that ice cream is a problem and we're saying, hey, we're really not doing this in a controlled manner.

I feel like I don't want to eat this, but I am. Okay, get it out of your house. You don't have to have it in there. Now, I'm not saying that you can't ever have ice cream. But what I'm saying is create some barriers to acquiring that to allow you to have the ability to use your willpower to avoid some of these things that you don't want to do.

When we talk about fat loss, there is this dichotomy that we see with professionals. And some say, oh, you just need to have willpower. Just don't do it. If it really matters to you, you're not going to eat it. Then there are other people that say that willpower doesn't matter at all. And the reality is it's a little bit in the middle. Willpower certainly matters.

So what we want to do is we want to set up situations to allow us to have to use as little willpower as possible to allow us to succeed. So if having the ice cream in our house is a real problem, just say, okay, well, I'm not going to have the ice cream in my house. You can have ice cream, but then you're going to have to make the active choice to go out and buy it whenever you want to have it.

And when you go out and buy it, get a single serving. Enjoy it because you've taken the time to think about it. You've made the effort to go out and get it. And so it's a conscious choice. This removes the idea that the food is illegal or forbidden in some way. But it does create a barrier to where you have to go out and you have to actually do it.

And in many cases, what you'll find is people will be like, I don't want to drive 10 minutes to get ice cream. Okay, well, that's great. You just showed yourself that it wasn't that important to you. And you can start to wean yourself away from these problematic foods in that manner.

And just because you've said, okay, well, I'm going to take Alan's advice and I'm going to adjust my food environment. I'm going to take this ice cream or cookies or whatever it is out of my house for a time. That doesn't mean that it has to be forever. Start to use this. And you can set it up where you have four, six, eight weeks down the road. Put something in your calendar as an alarm.
