I know it sounds a bit extreme, but somone mentioned to take a digital picture of your food before you eat it. I know you can't do that with every meal, but I think it would slow down my eating . The person also said they can review their meals at the end of the day. I think this would be good for people who are trying to get modivated to start loosing.

    lol, if i werent on MFP i wud do that, but since im adding up my meals and the ingrediants that goes in my meals, seeing the calories add up makes me slow down. if i start taking pics i just might tip over to the eating disorder side of the house. =/ im serious.

    i take pictures of my meals of my meals - its nice to go back and see what they look like, plus, if someone says to me that dieting is boring, i show them real food, meat, veg etc and prove that they dont have to live on mass produced diet bars and meal replacement shakes
