14. Eat slowly.
Take your time when you eat. When you wolf down your food, you can’t immediately tell when you’re full, and you’re likely to overeat.
15. Veggies first.
Eat the veggies on your plate first. This can be more difficult for some than others. Personally, I love vegetables, so it’s easy for me to do. Find a veggie you LOVE to eat, and prepare it for yourself as much as you can so you’ll fill up on that instead of going for seconds. Veggies are high in fiber, so they’ll fill you up, leading you to eat less of less healthy foods.
