Just realized...

I never really paid much attention how I ate. Ever since I went to the seminar on Thursday I've been trying to chew my food throughly and not have liquids too soon before and after a meal. It's been hard but I've been doing good. My plan is to get used to eating that way so when the time comes all I have to worry about is knowing how much to eat.

WOW :eek:, I never realized how little time I spend chewing my food. I always thought I spent average time eating and that everyone else was slow. :cursing: I must admit because I thought about how I was chewing my food and actually made an effort to chew it to a pulp it took me a while to eat and I didn't even eat it all. Which is rare for me especially since I was eating seafood. :tt1: YUM! Another regular thing during a meal is regular refills of my drink. I had a few sips of water before my meal but didn't touch it again until after I was about to leave. Doing this helped me not have that rolly polly feeling after dinner. I guess all those times when I felt I was going to pop when all I had was 7 chicken wings is because I was fully of water too.

It just amazes me the things you notice when you take the time. :thumbup:
