     Tips to curb the appetite - As easy as WRBC

How do you know when you're through eating a meal? Do you stop when

a)      You feel full

b)      Your plate is clean

c)       Your fellow diners have “finished”  their meal

If either option b) and c) is your answer, then you are probably not listening to your body cues.
The left posterior amygdala (LPA) of the brain has been linked to the monitoring of the volume
of food in the gut during meal consumption. Once this tract has been comfortably filled, the LPA is said to transmit an impulse
to signal that the body is full and it’s time to stop eating.

If you have difficulty in listening to such body cues, the tips below would be helpful.

Write down the food consumed over the course of the day. Also assign numbers 1 to 4 depending on the portion size to each meal
intake. By doing so, you are effectively reminding yourself the type and the amount of the intake. Besides, you can also jot down
the reason for the meal i.e. as a main meal or a snack and the reason for the snack. Are you really hungry or mere giving in to the
food crave.

Relish each bite by appreciating the food texture, recognising the flavour of the food and then swallow it. By doing so, you can
heighten the gratification of the meal and avoid gobbling arising from excitement or hunger.

Breathe with each bite. This can help you to slow down the eating process and direct your mind to focus on the body cues too.

Check the nutrition guide on the menu (if it’s available) to help you make an informed choice.
