how thin people eat, the self control they have, and how they have a natural way of just being around food without the need to shovel it down their throats, I HAVE! ( noticed that is) I hadnt before, but now I have!!! Scene one... my sister and her husband came over for a visit on Sunday, they stopped for lunch on the way over, but in the afternoon having asked them to stay for tea, I opened a bottle of wine ( I passed, stayed on D Coke) and set about serving nibbly foods, rice crackers, some pate and some double brie, some Ritz, now to be fair husband and I hadnt eaten lunch so we were a little peckish, but sitting around the table, chatting and laughing, a huge dent was made in the food and I must say my sister and her husband virtually abstained from partaking in said nibbles!!!
Scene 2 - cooked chicken, made fresh green salads, fresh bread and oven wedges, sis and her husband who are very slim, served themselves normal portions and still had remains on their plates.
Question? do some people have inbuilt " I am satisfied" controls, why do some people not have this talent???
Question? Why did I have to be the fat one out in the family.
On the other hand I am working towards not being her! And more and more I am realising, its not just about the food and exercise, but also more importantly portion sizes.
So this week my intentions are:
Watch portion sizes - maybe use a smaller plate.
Drink more water
and aim for 50000 steps in 7 days,
Send me some luck!!!
