Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 , I was reading something recently that got me to thinking about HOW MUCH we Americans eat. Someone sent me a factoid that said that, according to it, the average fast-food hamburger in 1957 was 1 ounce, where today it's 3/4 pound. While the actual numbers may not hold up, I think it does point to a problem with " super-sizing " . Most of us eat far more than our stomachs can hold. Therein lies the problem that " the eyes are bigger than the stomach. " I remember a 20/20 broadcast about 25 years ago with Hugh Downes where he mentinoed, and this i still good advice, that it's a good idea to drink a big glass (8 ounces) of water about 20 minutes before a meal. That gives your brain enough time to sense the stomach has something in there. Resulting from this, you'll likely eat less because you already feel you ate something. In so doing, your stomach isn't storing so much food, therefore it won't have to store so much of it as fat. Gee, does this simple bit of advice make sense?

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 Thanks Pat. More than anything I am trying to follow what you mentioned a long time ago and that is simply not to eat tooooo much! What does get me is those periods when nothing happens at all. Rita > It's going good for you, Rita!

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 yes these are more like summareies that come and you can look at the American Diabetes Site to get more.
