Chew thoroughly and put the fork down between bites
Speed-eating is a quiet bloating tax. Chew thoroughly and put the fork down between bites so fullness can register before you overshoot. You are not joining a mindfulness cult. You are giving your gut a pace it can keep. Keep early inbox time; make lunch a meal, not a race against the calendar invite. Slower bites beat another peppermint-and-hope afternoon. One pause mid-plate is enough to start.
