while working, reading, watching TV, this way of eating contributes to the risk
of being overweight. What if we were to become fully aware of what we are

preparing, serving and eating it. This is to make food a pleasure again and not
just a vital reflex. Come to the table with an appetite, but not when you are
hungry. Enjoy the food. Take small bites. This way of eating will allow the brain to
catch up with the body. Being aware of the body's signals will help to limit
food intake.
