How can I stop eating such large portions of food in one sitting?

Question

I'm not overweight at all (5'7", 132 lbs), but for some reason, I feel the need to eat so much that I'm overly-full by the time I'm done! It seems like my brain has a hard time telling my stomach (and mouth) "enough is enough." I eat as much as my husband who is 6'2" and 210 lbs! I'm afraid that as I get older, I will start gaining weight as a result of me not having any will-power to say "no" to eating so much! Any tips on how I can control myself?

Answer 1

  Put  a  little  bit  at  a  time  in  your  plate and  control  your  self  ,that  exactly will  happen  if  you  don't,because  right  now  you  are  stretching your  intestine  to  the  fullest  and  it  will  get  used  to  it  soon you  will   be  craving  for  it  to be   full  all  the  time ,you  really  don't  want  to  be  uncomfortable right  after  you  eat  all  the  time,

right  ? You    will  get  to  the  point  that  when  you  weigh  your  self ;

  it  will  say  something  like.  

                    One  at  a  time  please....do  you  want  that  ?

Answer 2

a few things, put your fork down between every bite, drink a sip of drink behind every bite and eat slow this will give your stomach a chance to tell your brain its full. don't eat untill you are full, eat to be not hungrey! and it will help to eat lots of snacks through out the day, healthy snacks with no callories. fruits especially, then yo wont be hungery when you sist down for that mean in the first place

Answer 3

What you must do is figure out the calories for all the meals you consume in an average day. All nutritional information on packaging uses a 2,000 calorie average. If you feel you are eating more then 2,000 calories, cut back a little from each meal. You may not see a weight gain now but as you age chances are your butt will explode across the horizon, your thighs will start rubbing together, and the back of your arms will start to flap, not to mention the muffin top look. Catch it now before the expansion, it gets harder later.
