I went to lunch yesterday and watched a guy order a double burger, 2 orders of fries and a large drink. The cup was actually so big it had a handle. What’s really amazing is how fast he ate it all. He ate it all so fast that he actually fell asleep at the restaurant. If he had realized that it takes 20 minutes for his stomach to send the signal to his brain indicating it’s full he might not have eaten at such a rapid pace.
Which brings me to today’s tip. It does take 20 minutes to realize that you’re full. Plus it doesn’t take much food to fill you up. I understand how it feels to be so hungry that you feel like you have to eat fast and hard. But if you eat slower it gives your body time to realize it’s full and you can save yourself over 1300 unneeded calories a day
But just take your time and remember the 20 minute rule.
