Very good article Kairk. Number 4 has been especially good to me -- decreasing variety, or what they refer to as "sensory-specific satiety."

Totally agree re limiting variety , number 4.  

I'm not as good as you with this, amaw, but I choose the same basics week in and week out.

The article has some great tips... they are from Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think, by Brian Wansink, Ph.D.... he is one of the speakers at this year's Your Weight Matters National Convention.... the event the OAC www.YWMConvention.com hosts being held in August.

I hope to meet some OHers there.

4 (decrease variety), 6 (increase inconvenience) and 12 (do not stockpile) are the biggest for me.  if i can manage those, the rest becomes more manageable.
