Serve yourself all of the same components, dig into the 4 Questions, and listen to your body.Distinguishing two different forms of "appealing" foods: The ones we crave/want and the ones the body needs.Getting satisfaction: it's about developing a level of trust in your body.Feeling in the moment and noticing the cues your body may be heading into detox.Kim and Gina discuss what "slightly less" is all about.Feeling triggered? Downsizing will bring up all of the feels we have around food, past diets, and hunger.Get out of your head and into your belly!Going back for seconds after checking in on how you feel is a good practice to deploy when downsizing.Downsizing is not about less and less; it's about getting in tune to portions and how you feel, not what they look like.Learning from your experiences and trusting that you have another snack or meal coming down the pipeline.Feeling too full? You may want to lighten up what you are choosing to eat.Water does nothing to satisfy an appetite!You may miss the messages of your body when distracted, tired, or eating too quickly.Choosing the right foods at the right time.Be sure to review the downsizing tweak but also know that you don't have to be perfect.
