The Lunch Box Diet

A little over a week ago I started using 'Walk with me' on the Nintendo DS.  I fairly quickly realised that my current work-from-home setup means I'm particularly sedentary, and struggle to meet the 'easy' and deliberately low target of 3000 steps per day.
A change of job means that I'll soon be spending much of my time in an office; whilst this means my daily step count should go right up, it also means I'll have to work out what I'm going to eat during the day, as picking something out of the fridge, or meeting MrsB for lunch, is no longer going to be an option.
Usefully, I have a copy of an ebook, called 'the lunch box diet'.  The basic idea is that most people (at least, those wanting to lose some weight) have fallen into the bad habit of eating until they feel full.  This is worse than it sounds as there is a lag between when you're actually full and your brain realises you're full, and in the end, you overeat.  As a result, the stomach stretches, and over time, can take on more food; this feeds a vicious circle where the 'feeling full' lag means an ever increasing food intake and a growing stomach.
The lunch box diet has a goal to shrink the stomach; so inbetween breakfast and dinner, you graze, eating every hour or couple of hours, out of the lunchbox.  Of course, what's in the lunchbox is carefully prepared to be healthy and nutritious.

A big part of the battle against eating too much is in the mind; I keep trying believe that Steve Tyler really did say: "Nothing tastes better than the feeling of thin."

I figure I'll give 'the lunch box diet' a go.  Watch this space.
