3. Use Of Cutlery Rather Than Bare Hands.
Using utensils instead of your hands means you’ll eat more slowly. You’re also more likely to eat less because you have to focus more on cutting and eating your meal.
Here’s a tip: To slow things down, set your knife and fork down between mouthfuls. This allows you to identify when you are full. This helps you avoid cutting the next mouthful before you’ve completed the previous one.
The bottom line is that if you eat with a fork, you will most likely eat less, resulting in fewer calories. Eat with a spoon, and you’re more likely to overeat and, as a result, gain weight.
