Does your hand put food in your mouth without any conscious thought? Do you eat in front of your computer, television, or while on the phone? Do you have trouble recalling what exactly you ate? Then you might be an unconscious eater. Unconscious eaters eat mindlessly, paying little if no attention to what they eat; food is just one more multitasking item.
This type of eating can lead to a multitude of unwanted results, namely weight gain and poor food choices that leave you feeling sluggish. If you are trying to lose weight, then work on becoming more aware of what exactly you are eating by practicing mindful eating.
