Use real Table ware

Dont know if this is true but...... experts recommend using real table ware & cultery (the more expensive & more elaborate the better!!!! ) as it'll make you feel like you have eaten a full meal. In that way, you might snack less at other times!

Studies have shown that people who ate from paper plates with plastic utensils tend to view their meal as just a snack. And although they might consume less calories from the "real plate" group, they tend to eat another meal later. And this adds up!!!

The environment does influence how much we eat. This brings to mind airline meals. Dont you always go some where for food after landing. Like after a flight even though you have just eaten onboard? Cant speak for the rest, but I do, I always feel like having a good meal after!!!!! Hmmm... dangerous!!!

Strategic storing of food in the fringe could SAVE U!

OK not so dramatic as "saving you" but definitely could shape the way you eat.

1. According to experts, placing vegetables, fruits & all those healthy food at eye level increase your chances of eating them VS snacking on the unhealthy ones! That's why big companies pay alot to have their products place at eye level in the super markets-

2. If you already bought the junk food, hiding it out of sight helps!!!! Again place the healthier snacks in the front & centre & stash the junk behind....lol....

3. Buy less each time, you might have to shop more. People do tend to reduce consumption when stocks run low. It's a psychological thing...lol....
