Hey lovelies <333

Just wanted to share this little tid bit.

I’m always reading on healthy tips and stuff and for the first time I came across this one in particular that blew my mind. Well first of all let me explain, I’m a fast eater. I try and try to not eat so fast, try to space out each spoonful but I always end up finishing first in the table. I thought I was bad but turns out my boyfriend’s worse. Shhh! I didn’t say that.

Anyways, back to what I was saying. I stumbled upon this fact and wanted to share with you ladies. 

De-stress before you eat.

Try to relax before eating to avoid gobbling down everything in sight—that’s the dreaded mindless eating you’re trying to avoid. If you take a minute or two to relax before eating, you can gain control and mental focus before the meal. Whether it’s a few deep breaths, a short walk or a friendly phone chat, that can only help your meal-time control.

Found this on Pinterest. Here’s the link for more tips : http://www.ivillage.com/5-tips-ease-weight-loss/4-a-106697

This makes total sense! And I feel like a doofus for not thinking about it before. If I take a few minutes before I eat to just relax maybe I won’t use “food” as a stress reliever and enjoy what I’m eating.

Hope all of you are doing good! <3xo
