Sporting a jelly-belly? Some call it their "spare tire." And for women, there's just about nothing as humiliating as being mistaken for being "preggers" when you're not. Does this happen a lot if you're carrying quite a bit of fat around your midsection?
Hearing someone else comment on your size can drive even the sanest person to the nearest fast-food joint to temporarily comfort themselves the only way they know how.
Overeating is one of the main causes of obesity. However, there is a relatively simple way to help you lose belly fat safely. And, the sweetest thing about it may be that you don't have to dish out any dough! You can do it without experiencing profoundly agonizing cravings to "stuff your face more," too.
The scoop on how to feel fuller faster and cease hunger pains sooner is to eat slower.
Perhaps you've been programmed to "hurry up and eat your food before it gets cold." Or, maybe you're from a big family and had to compete for food on the table. Regardless, have faith in yourself -- you can really consume your food more slowly and break your habit of overeating.
Here's how it works: When you put food in your mouth, it takes a certain amount of time for receptors in your brain to receive the message you're being satisfied from it and do not need to eat more. According to additional research, those with obesity have food-satisfaction signals that do not get to their brain until 20-plus minutes after having eaten. Yet, "skinny minnies" who do not rush eating have their brain notified by satiation signals within 12 or more minutes. Hence, such findings illustrate eating slowly ensures that those important messages have time to reach the brain.
