And the magic number to do that is 20.

She explained: “For those who have had bariatric surgery, we use the 20:20:20:20 rule: a 20p piece (regarding 30g), chew 20 times, take a 20-second break between bites, and take 20 minutes to eat.”

She pointed out that even if you did not undergo weight loss surgery, you can eat more bites, but you still have to spend 20 minutes eating a meal and each bite must be chewed more.

There are several other ways you can immediately slow down your eating, such as setting a timer when you eat a meal to get an idea of ​​how long it will take you to eat it.

Then try to get rid of distractions, such as the TV or the phone, and sit at a table to eat instead of on the sofa.
