Behavioral Basics – Dr. Phil said/wrote somewhere “choose the behavior, choose the consequence”.  In the context in which he wrote/said it, he didn’t mean the obvious, like…eat too many brownies – get fat.  He meant the less obvious, like fail to grocery shop – overeat five days later on halvah stashed somewhere in the back of one of your cabinets.  In fact, stashing the junk like you will never ever retrieve and eat it is another example in and of itself.  I always joke that I must tell myself that I have “kitchen elves” for whom I stash things.  They are never intended for li’l ole me.
