People who sit down for dinner usually eat about 1/3 less than people who are eating on the fly.

Why is that? It is because people who sit down and eat often eat their food slower, which allows the body to recognize that it is full before you have the chance to consume too much extra food. People who are in a hurry tend to eat faster and by the time their body sends up the full sign, they are having to unbutton the pants due to over eating.

Next time take time in between bites. Talk, laugh or distract yourself somehow while eating to slow the food intake... you will realize you are eating less but still getting full. It is great!!!

Eating your food slower is better than eating your food fast. The faster you eat, the more likely you will take in extra air and lead to bloating your stomach and causing gas. Try to slow down when eating!
