8 tips to help you eat less

So you want to lose weight. It’s easy! Eat less and exercise more. I have heard this many times! Yes, it sounds easy. 😅 But when you have bad habits for a long time, it’s not that simple. Here’s a little help for you to take control of your eating habits. 👌

Serve your food in the kitchen

When dining or lunching with family or guests, only put healthy things on the dining table (salads, vegetables, fruits) and keep high-fat, high-carbohydrate food in the kitchen to avoid going for seconds. 🔥

Use smaller plates and tall, thin glasses

A normal-sized portion looks large on a smaller plate, and we see less liquid when we use tall, thin glasses. 🤙 *

Save the wine for dessert

Alcohol often causes uninhibited eating. If you like a glass of wine or beer with your meal, have a glass at the end. 🍷 *

Stop, look and listen while you eat

Don’t talk with your mouth full. Cultivate the art of conversation and prolong your meal, putting your fork between the bites and focusing on table talk. Turn off the TV during meals! 👊

Brush your teeth after eating

This can send a powerful “Eating time is over!” message that your brain automatically obeys. *

Don’t skip meals

Skipping necessary meals during the day can leave you really hungry at night. Always eat breakfast and have a small morning snack if you feel hungry. Eat a decent lunch and another small snack in the afternoon to prevent yourself from eating more at night. If you need more help simply write information in the comments.

Keep baby carrots close while cooking

I love baby carrots. I always have them on hand when I’m cooking or baking. Every time I feel the need to put a piece of cheese or chocolate in my mouth, I just eat a carrot. It works all the time.

Keep snacks out of sight

Wrap them and put them in hard-to-reach and hard-to-see places in the closet, refrigerator or freezer. If you want more information on nutrition and health topics, or need advice to find the healthiest eating plan to help you lose weight, click here *
