Finish The Bite

How many times a day do we eat. Most of us at least three meals, not including snacking and picking. If you are like me you eat five or six small meals a day.

A thought came to my head the other day. I was especially hungry, something had deterred my regular meal time. You know that feeling when you need to eat and you will just about eat anything you can find. As I was stuffing food into my mouth, I realized I still had food in my mouth from my last bite!

Okay so this was an unusual situation for me, I was ravenous. So I decided to gauge my other meals and found I did it fairly often, put another bite into my mouth when I was not yet done with the other one.

So I decided to become more conscious of my eating and taking a bite. When I did wait, I discovered something pretty nice, I really enjoyed my food even more. I was appreciating the taste and texture. I slowed down, did not need as much food and had a better meal.

Something to be said for Finishing Your Bite...
