It’s common for some people to eat while using the computer, watching TV or reading. Do you find yourself doing these things?

Personal trainer and nutrition expert Erin Palinski-Wade says that eating this way can cause you to gain weight. Though changing your eating habits can be hard, but Erin will guide you through simple steps that will help you practice “mindful eating”. With this, you can enjoy your food more, eat slower, and pay more attention to your body’s signals so that you’re more aware when your are full and can learn to eat less over time. The relaxation can even help people with diabetes control their blood glucose levels.
