Full-meal satisfaction By Be Fitter Pauline Lim
I wanted to share a strategy I just discovered for myself: whenever I eat a Be Fit meal at the hospital cafeteria, I always feel unbelievably satisfied afterwards. I realized that it's because I get to see all the food on my tray at once-- it looks big and appetizing.
At home I rarely see all the food in front of me at once; I eat one part at a time, often overeating each part because I don't want to "say goodbye" to it and move on to the apple or whatever.
Today I decided to try assembling all my lunch into one magnificent pile in front of me, and it worked! I had to eat the apple and drink the milk before getting seconds on the other stuff, and by that time, I found I didn't need it. I was full and satisfied, and what's more, for the first time in many days, I didn't overeat!
