1. A study showed that women who have cereal boxes on their counter weigh 20 pounds more than those who don’t. You eat what you see.
2. People who eat their meals off salad plates eat 22% less than those who eat off a 10 inch plate dinner plate.
3. Low music, and soft lighting and no television, computers or radios close by the dinner table helped people eat less.
4. Drinking a full glass of waster and eating an apple decreased people’s appetite before a meal.
5. Eating slower caused people to eat less because they became satiated earlier in the meal. Eating quickly makes you eat past the satiation point.
