One way to control overeating,is to stay mindful when eating. Try these guidelines;
1. Don't eat standing up, driving, or off a child's plate.
2. Eat 6 small meals- at least every 2-3 hours. Don't finish your plate just so "starving kids in a third world country don't starve" (remember that one from childhood).
3. Don't eat while watching t.v. You don't even realize what your eating because your watching a program.
4. Enjoy every bite for the flavors, texture and smells they provide, not just to eat!
-Know that you deserve to romance your food. Enjoy the passion of every bite and stay in the moment.
