Sit down and eat…Sitting while eating encourages more mindful eating. It can lead to better portion control and will result in consuming fewer calories. Standing encourages rushed eating and loss of fullness cues.
Put off dessert…Instead of going for dessert immediately after dinner, take a short walk. Even 10 minutes can lead to better glucose control, and boost digestion, after which you can treat yourself.
Eat with Chopsticks…If you are a fast eater, try chopsticks for a couple of meals. It can encourage slower eating which will train your body to slow down and enjoy the meal. You will consume less calories without trying. I personally have more food on me when I eat with chopsticks, but don’t let that discourage you.
