How much food is really enough? by Darryn Aldridge

while you are chewing, and not putting more food into your mouth until you have swallowed what you’ve already got in your mouth, will help to slow down the eating process. The real bonus to this is that you will actually start to

really taste the food you are eating and begin to feel and appreciate the different textures that each mouthful gives you. We live in a world where we do everything at a fast pace. Learn to slow down and enjoy it, you will be doing your digestive system a favor.

3. Don’t serve at the table: I saved myself a lot of grief by taking action on this point. While it is very nice to

have a table full of food served in nice dishes, for the people coming to terms with their weight, this is a huge no no. The temptation that a table full of food presents to you will tempt even the strongest of wills. Remove the temptation by making sure that all food is portioned at the

time of serving in the kitchen. You will be more likely to have seconds if the food is sitting on the table staring at you, invitingly, than if you have to leave the table and go

to the kitchen.

4. Cleaning up: So you’ve done all the right things so far and now it is time to clean up after your meal. We are now

presented with another brilliant opportunity to overeat again. I love picking at food when I am putting it away. I could actually finish all the left overs at this point and

not even realize what was happening! Try and get a member of your family to clear away any of the left over food

before you tackle the dishes, or put leftovers straight in the fridge after serving to resist ”dishes overeating”.

Most of these issues surrounding weight gain are just bad habits that have formed over the years. Simple steps are often all that are needed to help break these bad habits and form better ones.

All it takes is some self control and desire to get the ball rolling towards a more fulfilling and healthier

lifestyle.
