Eat a little, then wait
Did you know that it takes 20 minutes for your belly to tell your brain it’s full? That’s why it’s so important to pace yourself during meals, chew slowly, and savor every bite. Today, challenge yourself to make your meals last 15-20 minutes long. Or at least wait that long before going back for seconds.

Arianna – I really like your idea. I usually wait until just before bed to brush, but I’ve never thought of doing it right after dinner so everything tastes bad. I usually work til pretty late at night, so maybe if I even bring mouthwash, that could probably help!

I have been working on my bored eating. Sometimes just talking yourself out of it works. Stop yourself from going to the pantry or fridge by asking yourself if you are truly hungry or are you bored. Works for me most of the time. Sometimes I just have to go clean something or find something else to concentrate on like reading a book.
