It's easier to add, than to take away/or take back

Are your eyes bigger than your stomach? Are you overzealous about your consumption? Do you throw a lot of "excess" away and regret it?

I, personally, need to work on this concept. But- I've improved, and I find the evidence in the reduction of our trash/waste.

My brain likes to trick me into thinking that I need something now rather than later. And, as I mentioned yesterday, that will cause me trouble because my goals will collapse if I can't delay gratification on things that are necessary to a certain "moment".

I've learned to trick my brain by using smaller bottles, plates, glasses, etc. It's an ongoing tug-of-war. =p
