One of the most valuable habits I’ve picked up is cooking my own meals. When you take the time to prepare your food, you naturally appreciate it more—you slow down, savor each bite, and often end up eating less simply because the experience feels more intentional and rewarding.
Just today, I whipped up a quick Asian-style sauce to go with some leftover rice, and it completely elevated a simple meal into something truly satisfying.
Another helpful tip: use zero-calorie flavor enhancers like Bolero (which is popular here in Europe). They make drinking water more enjoyable, which not only helps you stay hydrated but can also curb your appetite. Try drinking one or two glasses of water before your main meal—you might find you’re already feeling full before you even finish your plate.
