Joel Olsteens preached about "Eating Right" a while back. He gave some good tips as far as eating right goes. Here are a few I remember:
1. Don't multi-task while eating. In other words don't try doing a lot of different things (i.e., watching TV, reading, working, homework) while eating.
2. Eat slowly. It takes about 20 minutes for your brain to receive the information that your stomah is full. When you too eat fast, you eat more than you should.
3. Eat a larger meal in the beginning of the day and decrease the size of each meal there after.
4. Do not skip breakfast and lunch. This will cause you to eat a larger portion at dinner. It is healthier to eat smaller portions throughout the day.
5. Avoid lusting and craving after food you see. Insulin is released into your body even when you crave after food you see and thus you have a false sense of being hungry.
