The kitchen table. The table you probably have but use to put things on. It might sound old fashioned, but there’s something to eating meals at the table.
And turn off the TV while you’re eating.
I know. Too much too soon. Stay with me.
I eat all my meals at the table. Sometimes if I have somewhere to be in the morning, I’m eating my yogurt/granola/berries while getting ready. But beyond that…at the table.
It forces you to slow down and enjoy the meal. Slowing down how fast you eat can actually help you eat less…because you’re giving your body time to realize you’re full.
It also allows you to taste your food. Sound ridiculous? How many times have you sat in front of the TV and devoured an entire pizza or bag of chips (or both) and wondered what just happened. Did I really eat all that? Did you enjoy it? Probably not.
Try it for a week. TV off, sit at the table. Start with just dinner. I will sometimes have a podcast playing, but I liken that to listening to music. You might be surprised how much you actually enjoy it.
