I am disappointed with myself  . . .

I drank myself into a stupor on both Friday and Saturday nights, and on top of that I ate junk food all weekend long. Burgers and pizzas, they sure taste good!

This is totally unforgivable! Especially because I have been working hard at the gym, and trying to eat healthily. So today, with the guilt, I dragged myself to the gym and I worked double hard.

I just came back from the gym, and I have since decided to stop beating myself down about it. After all, it is ok to eat my favorite foods once in a while, right? Plus I am allowed to reward myself when I have been good.

So the lesson is to eat my favorite foods, but in MODERATION! After all, life is too short and it is to be enjoyed.

Here is the fat burning tips I want to share with you today:

You might be surprised to learn that simply slowing down the rate that you eat your food at can have a profound affect on your body weight.  The longer it takes you to eat your food, the less food you will need to eat to feel satisfied.

There are some simple techniques that can get you out of a bad habit of eating too fast and consequently eating too much.

• Try to chew your food a little longer before you swallow it as this will help with the digestion of the food and the extra time that it takes you to chew will also help you to feel more satisfied without having to have such a large quantity.

• Don’t load up your fork or spoon with more food until you have finished eating the food that is already in your mouth. One simple way of doing this is to actually put down your fork or spoon until you ready to pick up the next piece of food to eat.

You will find that once you start eating a little slower you will actually get to enjoy the food a lot more. You will have more time to savor the tastes in the food.

It takes a little while after eating food for your body to register the fact that it has had enough and many people overeat when they eat too fast simply because they believe they are still hungry. You should never eat until you are full; rather eat until you feel comfortable that you have had enough.

If you found this tip useful, share it with your friends.
