MORE INFORMATION:
Eating a piece of fruit 20 minutes before I eat a meal helps keep me from eating while I cook. It also helps me control my portions at each meal .
I have a hard time eating fruits and veggies, so I try to eat them first at each meal, before I fill up on carbs & protein. Or I'll have a piece of fruit while I'm cooking/preparing my main meal. Not only do I make sure I get my freggies, I usually end up eating less during the meal because I already have something in my tummy.
