It's not just what you eat, it's how you eat


Try not to think certain foods as off limits.

If you are drown towards sweet, salty or unhealthy foods, start by reducing portion sizes and not eating them as often. later you may find yourself craving them less or thinking of them as only occasional indulgences.

Take time to chew your food and enjoy mealtimes.

Chew your food slowly, savoring every bite. We tend to rush though our meals, forgetting to actually taste the flavors and feel the textures of what is in our mouths. If we do so, we will enjoy of eating our meals. :)

Listen to your body.

Ask yourself if you are really hungry, or have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty instead of hungry. During a meal, stop eating before you feel full. It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly ok!

Eat breakfast, and eat smaller meals throughout the day.

A healthy breakfast can jumpstart your metabolism, and eating small, healthy meals throughout the day, keeps your energy up and your metabolism going.

Avoid eating in front of TV.

It’s will allow you to model unhealthy eating habits. As we’ve known, most of people love to take unhealthy foods. At the same time, you will eat higher amount of meals during watching your favourite show without realise how much you have eaten actually.


ps : please say LOVE to your body before it's too LATE. tQ




with loves,
