some useful tips from PeerTrainer

I thought these PeerTrainer daily email tips were useful:

How to Eat Healthy at a Party
Creating an Environment of Thin
The Three Bite Rule

Actually, I think I will add to this post as more come up, so I don't make a new post each time.

PEERtrainer advice

I get PEERtrainer's tip of the day in email and I often find them very interesting.  Today's email said that daily logging of food is a key to successful, longterm weightloss.  It doesn't matter how you do it, doesn't have to be fancy or calorie counting, just logging what you ate.  It helps you from deceiving yourself and shows you your potential pitfalls.   The email is posted here.

That reminds me that another thing they recommend is daily weigh-ins.  They admit it's controversial but they find it works for a lot of people.  I don't recall where I saw that posted, sorry.

How to lose a lot of Weight

Just got this email from PeerTrainer on what to do when you need to lose 50 or more lbs.  Might be useful to some of you.

PeerTrainer

Someone I respect told me that they use PeerTrainer to help them with their eating/fitness program, so I got on their email list to find out more.  It is led by Jackie Wicks, who promotes a relatively healthy eating program, similar to Dr. Fuhrman.   Her emails sometimes include some interesting articles, like this one about 7 steps to overcoming emotional eating.  If you want further support, they have a emotional eating mini course.  I have no idea if this is good or not, I'm just pointing it out since it was in the email I received yesterday.  She also linked to another program they do called Point of No Return, for dealing with the psychological barriers of dieting.  If any of you have ever tried these programs, I'd be interested to hear what you thought of them.
