S.S.S.S.SIT when you EAT- – how many times do you eat on the go – while cooking, preparing food, in the car, during class, reading a book, watching tv –  when we eat – we need to be conscious of what we are putting into our bodies and the only way to do that is to: 1-Stop; 2-Sit; 3-Serve ourselves-plate our food; 4-See-look at it and see what you are about to eat; 5-Savour – enjoy eating- don’t feel bad- if you’ve chosen to eat it- choose to enjoy it! It tastes much better that way and if it’s a decent size portion, chances are that you won’t go back for more and if you do – you will know how much you’ve already had. What often happens is that when we eat on the go – we don’t gauge how much or what it is that we are eating which will result – if not in a phsysiological hunger in a psychological hunger – you don’t know how much you have actually eaten – and you may just be eating again because you feel you have to or feel that you haven’t eaten properly yet.

So sit down, relax, enjoy your food!
