Tip #3 Out of Sight, Out of Mind

Keep sweet treats and salty snacks out of sight today. But just to clarify: these are not forbidden foods. Rather they are "occasional" foods that turn into "everyday" foods when they're sitting in plain sight, tempting us day after day. So place these types in the highest cupboard- like the one high above the fridge. If you have to actually grab a chair to reach a certain snack food, it will be ridiculously inconvenient to overindulge.

Then open your fridge and move anything that's a sweet or salty snack to the very back making it hard and out of sight. Remove any candy dishes or bags of treats from your sight. The simple rule of  "out of sight, out of mind" means you can still enjoy those snacks foods once and a while (as you should!) but not multiple times everyday.
