Toothbrushing and Dieting

My boss is now size zero. She went into a gym and had a very healthy diet. I wish I have the same discipline. She admits though that she had hunger pangs. Whenever that attacks, she said that she just brushes her teeth. Imagine that! What is the relation of brushing teeth to dieting and eventually becoming size zero? I was size 8 and a bloating size 22 right now!

Brush your teeth. When you feel like snacking, try brushing your teeth. For many people, having fresh minty breath staves off the need to snack. Keep a toothbrush and a travel size tube of toothpaste in your purse or desk drawer. Many times the desire to nibble doesn't come from hunger but from boredom or stress. Instead of paying a visit to the vending machine for chips or candy, hit the bathroom and give your mouth a quick cleansing.
