Default What kind of eater are you ?

Nah. Ever since I was a kid it only ever took me 5 minutes to eat. I
love food,can't get enough.

Just asking. With some folks, that kind of 'training' lasts a lifetime.

You can unlearn that, just like smokers unlearn smoking. I am naturally a
slow eater, but I have a friend who is lightning fast, has been hospitalized
twice in a year for blood pressure spikes and was told to eat much, much
less. Because she ate so fast she was unaware of how much she was eating--
it takes 20 minutes for the signal "full" to get out. I talked her into
eating while trying to figure out everything that was in a dish. It really
slowed her down. She got very good at it, too, plus she has lost about 12
pounds.
