Do Not Eat When You Are Not Hungry

Some things from a Hundred years ago, are a little out of date today, like the corset, or the hand-cart. However, some truths never change. For instance, take Wallace Wattles' instruction on when to eat. Eat when you are hungry, and do not eat when you are not hungry. He insists that this is the most healthy and natural way to eat.

Do not eat unless you are hungry. Then, stop eating as soon as the sensation of hunger begins to fade. Do not eat until you are full, just till your hungers begins to go away. Wattles writes that this is the way to eat "scientifically."

Stop and think for a minute about the implications of this one simple idea. I can only guess what my life will be like a year from now if I can just adhere to this one idea. It is both simple and profound, all at once.
