Bites, nibbles and tastes can have you going over your calorie limit without you even knowing.
How often do you take a bite of the food you are prepping or serving yourself or your family? How often do you find yourself taking a bite of what your kids have left on their plate while you are cleaning up after your meals?
I encourage you the next time you are in the kitchen getting a meal or snack together whether it's for yourself or someone else, take note each time you feel like taking a bite. It's so easy to do and not even realize you are doing it.
If you find it hard to NOT take an extra bite, nibble or taste of food while prepping, chew on a piece of sugar free gum while you prepare your meal.
Just like everything else on your health journey, the more you practice a habit the more it will stick, so practice being mindful while you are food prepping for the week, preparing your meals/snack and cleaning up your and your family's dishes.
