Keeping your gut in check – Your weapon against overeating

Stereotypical Disclaimer:  You could buy bigger pants.  Or you could stay the same size.  Clothes that fit look great.  They look even better when they fit someone who’s fit.  Before changing your diet or starting an exercise program, talk with your physician.  Learn your limits, and don’t give yourself a heart attack or starve yourself to death.  And if you do, don’t come cryin’ to me because you didn’t heed that warning.

Use chopsticks.  Use chopsticks as often as you can.  Use chopsticks to eat your egg and yogurt with blueberries in the morning.  Use chopsticks for your mid-day salad.  Having Mexican that night at home?  Put the Tortilla to the side and use chopsticks on the rest.  Ice Cream for dessert?  Chopsticks even then.

Us guys just eat way too fast.  If you slow down your eating, you’ll start to feel full faster.  Your fork and spoon are a dump truck.  Chopsticks are a bike.  You’ll still get there, but one option takes longer and is the much healthier way to go.  Get yourself some washable, reusable chopsticks and use them on everything you don’t drink.
