“the French report that only about 11% of people there are obese” ~The French diet connection

Have you ever noticed that French people are thin? They believe that it’s not what they eat so much as it’s how they eat. “French women eat with all five senses”, says Mireille Guiliano. She describes the way the French eat as very slow and extremely enjoyable.

Let’s give this a try, then everyone post here to let us know how it works for you. Let me know if you’ve lost weight of size in those weeks.

For the next couple weeks try to eat really slow. Before you even take a bite of your food, look at it, smell it, imagine eating it. Then take a small bite and let it sit on your tongue for a second before starting to chew. Chew slowly tasting every nuance of the flavor. Put your food or fork down between bites and just concentrate on the food you’re eating.
