If you want to lose weight this weekend, where do you start? One answer is to eat by using all 5 senses. Mindful eating is eating with all 5 senses-even the one that historically gets us in trouble--sight. You've heard the expression-your eyes are bigger than your stomach. No problem. When you learn to feel your stomach, get connected to yourself and rely on your own body's feedback, it won't matter. I often take a big plate of food, especially at a buffet (ugh!) or a social gathering if.
