    Breakfast 10-15 mins (at my desk)
    Lunch 10-20 mins
    Dinner 20-30 mins

    I'm a pretty slow eater.

    Depends on the food/situation. I am almost always slower than my kids & husband (they're often done by the time I'm settling in with my own food), but I am faster than other people I know. When I was a kid I had a friend who would take 30 minutes to eat a freaking sandwich. Like, pb&j. Mine was gone in 5 minutes or less. Might be one reason why she was always underweight and I was always overweight.

    I'm usually the last one at the table. I find if I eat too quickly I tend to want to eat more. By slowing it down its easier for me to judge when I've had enough. It usually takes me 20-30 minutes to eat a meal. I had a bowl of chicken tortilla soup for lunch today and it took me nearly 30 minutes to finish it.

    I have always been a slower eater, lunch and dinner take anywhere from 20-40 minutes.
