Tempted by that bag of cookies in the pantry or the last cupcake leftover from a party?
Here’s a tip: eat an apple first.
If you still want the sweet treat after eating your apple, then go ahead. Chances are you probably won’t but even if you do, you’ll be full of goodness from the apple and less likely to eat as much.
I call it my ABC theory.
Apples
Before
Crap
Try it out and let me know how it goes!

I love the tip! I will definitely have to try that. I love gala apples and they are a pretty satisfying snack… something tells me that the crap just won’t taste as good after a juicy apple!

I have recently switched to organic apples. They are not as tasty, but I am trying to be eat a little more organic, especially with fruits that have skins that I consume.

I would have titled it ‘Apples Before Chocolate’ but I think your method is better. Just thinking about chocolate would be a distraction. No temptation to let the mind dwell on ‘crap’
