Repeat! Drinking between bites helps us feel fuller and SLOW DOWN!! It really does work...now to remember to put it into practice!

My husband came randomly munch on things. I, on the other hand, will sit down with a bag of chips and INHALE them in to time flat if I don't think about it and stop myself. I have been working on eating what I want, slowing down, and ENJOYING my food. It is a hard habit to break though. Hello, my name is Megan and I am a speedeater.

There's always something that needs to be done, and eating slowly seems like such a waste of time!! I do know it's important to slow down, and maybe that's one of my issues. <br><br>I love this post, and I will try to make a more concerted effort to slow down when I eat, and also not rush my kids!!
