5 Easy Tips to Control Your Eating Habits

By Arthur Villanueva

I Know.. It can be extremely hard to control your eating habits. And obviously the majority of the world is having the same problem! With obesity rates rising at an alarming rate, it has become very important for us to manage our eating habits and keep them under control.

Here are several easy ways to control yourself and start living a happier healthier life.

1.) Eat Slowly

This is a pretty big one I think. People are WAY too quick to stuff their mouth full of food and gorge it down. I sometimes wonder if they were even able to TASTE the food that went in? Slow it down a little bit. Chew slowly and savor the taste of the food in your mouth. Doing this will allow you to "feel" when you are actually getting full, rather than just eating all you can and realizing later that you've stuffed yourself with way too much food.

2.) Be In Charge of Yourself

Don't let other people tell you when to eat! Just because someone's going out to get something to eat, doesn't mean you have to go too. Listen to your own stomach and eat only when you are hungry.

3.)Leave Some Leftovers

Pretty self explanatory here. Just because you have a plate full of food, doesn't mean you have to eat it all! Try to control yourself and maybe even make it your goal not to eat the whole plate and leave a little left over for later. Then your next meal could be the leftover food and you would basically have two meals in one. This is an obviously simple way to lose some weight and control your eating. Very Helpful!

4.) Snack Healthy

I love this one. Try snacking every few hours to keep your metabolism going, and your hunger for food will go down a little bit. It's quite amazing at how much of a difference this simple action can make. Try eating an apple or a banana an hour after your last meal, and i'm sure you'll find that your next real meal won't be as large as it was before. Keep snacking your way to your weight loss goals!

5.) Look Elsewhere for Comfort

Yea, I know you enjoy food, but every time you're hungry (or think you're hungry) try doing something else instead! Be it going out for a jog, calling up a friend and chatting, or whatever it is. Just do something that will distract you for a little while longer, so that you don't have to eat so much. Doing this one simple thing can cut down the amount of food you eat quite easily.

So there you have it. Following even just a few of these simple tips will help you control your eating habits and work your way to a healthier and more vibrant lifestyle. Just remember that whether you think you can do it or not, you're absolutely right! Good Luck and God Bless!
