Tip of the Day: Put that Fork Down!
No, I don’t mean not to eat. In fact, with this tip, you can eat what you normally eat!
The trick, however, is to physically put the fork (or spoon, or knife) down between each and every bite. This tip works by slowing your eating down. Many of us literally shovel our food into our mouthes and eat way, way, too fast.
There is a delay between the time we eat, and the time our stomachs trigger our brain to let us know that it is full. Therefore, by slowing our eating process, we give more time for that signal to occur.
But what if you are eating pizza or a burger? Simple. Between every bite, put that slice down. Set the burger back on the plate.
Make eating more deliberate, and you will feel full faster, and eat less as a result. For many of us, it is not depriving ourselves of the foods we love, but simply eating less of them that is an excellent first step to a healthier, fitter lifestyle.

Hi there, I really like what you are saying although I can’t agree fully on all things you are saying. But I really appreciate your efforts to explain details on muscle building and fitness in general. I would like to see more sites/blogs like this one. Cheers , Sasha
