Today I am going to talk to you about some (proven) psychological tricks that help us eat less , and that work in case we feel that we are suffering from nervous hunger and self-control in these cases is of very little use : we can refrain from eating a pizza or a cake if we are queuing at the bakery, but the next day we will not be very good at avoiding to nibble something while we go out for an aperitif. Another example that I feel like doing (and in which self-control goes to be blessed) is when we cook : many readers are expert cooks, and some specialize in particular recipes or even in cake design, which is so fashionable.

But on the other hand, having to do all day with creams, toppings and sugared almonds does not help those who want to limit themselves to eating.
In short: whatever your situation, that of nervous hunger or the constant need to eat is a serious problem for many of you, and control is useless. Better to play cunning. These tricks can really help you to eat less.

5 PSYCHOLOGICAL TRICKS TO EAT LESS
1) Remember what you ate for lunch. According to Cynthia Sass, a dietician, recalling the food that has just been eaten stimulates the sense of satiety, and makes us less urgent to eat again.
2) Smell the dish: nervous hunger beats speed. That is, if you manage to spend a few seconds in which you analyze what you are about to put in your mouth, for example looking at it from a different perspective, telling yourself that it is only food, or smelling it, you will eat with less enthusiasm. Essential in case there is a risk of binge eating.
