#3 - Eat Until You Are 80% Full When you eat, your digestive enzymes do a happy dance. They get to work, breaking down your food into nutrients for bodily energy. However, eating until you’re stuffed can leave you sluggish and uncomfortable. The enzymes can’t do their job efficiently, and this leads to problems down the line. After each bite this week, check in with your level of fullness. Stop eating when you feel about 80% full. This means that you’re satiated but not stuffed. Put it this way—if you have to unbutton your pants after a meal…you probably ate too much! Be careful, sometimes the difference between satisfied at 80% and stuffed at 100% is only a bite or two. What did you learn from this experiment?
