[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 648405, member: 1550"] The meals should be small and not take long to eat. Come on, Jabber, you get breaks on top of lunch. Actually, in between meals we are encouraged to eat healthy snacks, such as an apple and maybe five or ten almonds then I may have grapes, which are delicious and very healthy for another snack. I never spend too much time eating a meal. I also love Greek Yogurt, fat-free. I am a real freak about saturated fat. I eat almost nothing with saturated fat in it and my blood tests and heart test came back great. Fat is da enemy. It's "Da Man" that keeps us unhealthy. Italians must have a better overall lifestyle than us because the only country that comes close to our very high level of obesity is Australia. I have heard that if you go abroad, and I have not, meals in restaurants are less than half of what we expect in American restaurants. Euros are also more fitness conscious, which is a good thing in my opinion. They work too, but they are much more fit than us and our life expediency for a developed country is not really that high. The most obese state in the nation is Mississippi with an obesity rate of 50%. That's insane. Not that Wisconsinites are trim and fit. When I moved up here from Illinois, I was at my biggest and I felt right at home because so many people were my size...lol. All that beer??? [/QUOTE]
