"   Hey girls! Confession time... I have a smaller mouth than most people (I had to have 4 adult teeth extracted NOT including my wisdom teeth), but I talk more than most people and I think one of my teeth is exceptionally large\u2014my sweet tooth. India has some of the most flavorful food in the whole world, and their sweets are no exception. Their sweets, referred to as a whole as &amp;quot;matai&amp;quot; (pronounced muh-tie-ee)has more sugar than any cakes or pastries you will ever find in the U.S.. So, being here on a diet is super hard, but one of the many things I have learned over time is that moderation is key. I have, however, managed to resist eating too much due to the fact that I have been filling up on mangoes and vegetables that you can&amp;#039;t easily find in the U.S. (like mooli). I used to a very hard time controlling my sugar intake, though. You have to try hard not to concentrate on food so hard and overeat to make yourself feel better, food will never make you feel better, too much of it will just bring guilt and a big drop in confidence. Fast food and sweets are MADE to taste good, and it&amp;#039;s hard for our rationale to resist when our taste buds are so pleased. However, it&amp;#039;s a trick. Your tongue may want pallet-pleasers, but your mind and body want healthy food that&amp;#039;s not as tasteful. Even though your tongue won&amp;#039;t be as happy, your eyes and body will be more pleased, which is of superior importance. Your mind, body, and confidence will love the results of improving your diet... just try it, even slowly. I&amp;#039;m going to keep ask all of you to change even just a little bit until I hear results! What are the hardest food(s) for you to resist? Was/is emotional eating a problem for you? Just as I hope you guys are here to support me, I&amp;#039;m here to support and encourage you right back! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
