Are you worried that Halloween will turn into a two-month binge?
\nAre you feeling anxious that the holiday season kick-off is upon us?
\nAre you concerned that you might gain weight?
\nHere is One Thing YOU CAN Do Today<\/strong> that will help you gracefully and sveltely move through the holiday season.
\nChew Slowly and Savor the Flavor<\/strong>
\nResearch shows that those who slow down while eating and savor the flavor, eat less than those who gulp and stuff.
\nIn a recent study conducted by the University of Rhode Island, scientists found that when eating quickly women consumed 646 calories in approximately nine minutes. When they ate slowly, they averaged 579 calories in 29 minutes!
\nGet it?<\/strong> They ate 67 calories more in nine minutes than they did in 29 minutes! In addition, those who slowed down and savored the flavor, enjoyed their meal and felt satisfied on multiple levels!
\nOne thing you can do today: Slow Down … Savor the Flavor!<\/strong>
\nSpread the word … NOT the icing,
\nJanice
