Could you quality for the Olympic speed eating trials? Many people, both heavy and thin, east so fast that their taste buds see only a blur as the food speeds by. This minimizes the enjoyment of food. More importantly, eating rapidly can fool your body's defents against eating too much.
Your body has an internal satiety (fullness) mechanism. When you have eaten enough, the mechamism sens out signals saying "enough is enough!" We think this takes about 20 mins, althouh tis is a very complex process . . . If you eat rapidly, you will consume too much food before the mechanism kicks in. You will outpace your body's internal controls.
Slowing down eating can like halting a runaway train. You have had many meals in your life, so the habit of eating fast can be practiced thousands of times. Be patient and practice the following techniques . . .
Put your fork down between bites
Pause during the meal

this is so true. add chewing slowly to breakdown the food better.it also helps lessening the bulge at the fl'abs area.if you chew your food better,the intestines will easily digest it and absorb the nutrients better.and make the flow of nature smooth.oh yeah! munch! munch! munch!
Thank you very much.

Here's the rest of the article
Put your fork down between bites. When you take a bite of food, put your fork down, chew your food completely,swallow, and then pick up the fork for another bite. Do the same with the spoon, and if you are eating fingers foods like a sandwhich, put the food down between bites.
Pause during the meal Take a break during your meal. Start with a brief pause, of perhaps 30 seconds. Gradually increase the time to on, then two, and finally three minutes. This pause gives you time to reflect on what you ahve eaten, so you can make a conscious descision to proceed with more. Thei may also help you eat less. One study with animals found that interrupting the meal led to fewer total calories, even though the animasl could eat all they wanted after the break.
In short, bawal na yung galit galit muna hehe

listening to slow music like jazz helps slow down your eating pace..while listening to fast music tends to quicken your eating pace..

hahahah! Voracious! I like your arsenal of adjectives JOES. Sounds like a carnivorous dino to me. peace brad!
Yeah time has to be considered when eating. I agree, it makes a diff if your dining with fine wine and a date or if your eating at the college cafeteria. Eating is eating and it beats starving.

Kobayashi edges Chestnut in hot dog contest NEW YORK -- A 160-pound wonder from Japan set a record by devouring a sickening 53¾ frankfurters in 12 minutes to win the annual Independence Day hot dog eating competition on Coney Island. Dog gone: Kobayashi's winning marks since 2001 2006 53¾ 2005 49 2004 53½ 2003 44½ 2002 50½ 2001 50 The feat earned Takeru Kobayashi, 27, his sixth straight title in the event, held at the original Nathan's Famous hot dog stand on Brooklyn's seashore. His prize: the coveted Yellow Mustard Belt. Kobayashi broke his record of 53½ hot dogs, set at the same competition two years ago. Thousands of raucous spectators jammed the streets in front of the hot dog stand, a block from the famed Coney Island boardwalk, to watch the competition and Kobayashi -- a top-ranked eater who once ate 17.7 pounds of pan-seared cow brains to win $25,000. His strongest competition was Joey Chestnut, a 220-pound civil engineering student from San Jose, Calif., who set a U.S. record by eating 50 hot dogs during a qualifying tournament in Las Vegas. Chestnut jumped to an early lead in the competition, sometimes jamming franks into his mouth with two hands as the crowd roared. But Chestnut struggled, red-faced, with veins bulging in his forehead, as the Japanese star methodically chomped dog after dog, often dipping them in a soft drink before cramming them into his mouth. Kobayashi passed Chestnut with about three minutes left in the contest. When the clock expired, Chestnut had swallowed 52 Nathan's franks -- not quite enough. "I hit a wall. I just felt tired," he told ESPN, which broadcast the competition live. Kobayashi, his hair dyed yellow like a Nathan's billboard, vowed through an interpreter to return next year to conquer even more hot dogs than he did this time. Among the competitors were another favorite, 100-pound Sonya "The Black Widow" Thomas, of Alexandria, Va., who once ate 65 hard boiled eggs in a little more than 6½ minutes, and a local favorite, Eric "Badlands" Booker, a 425-pound subway conductor from Long Island who holds speed-eating records for pies and matzo balls. First-time competitor Erik "The Red" Denmark, 28, of Seattle, who downed 22 hot dogs, said he was happy just to be there. "It's like making it to the World Cup," said Denmark, who can boast of having eating 98 jalapenos in 15 minutes.

i think it's a residual instinct from caveman days. you had to eat fast if you want to take advantage of the packs kill, or because you're weary of predatorial threat.
i try too hard.
