One of the best things you can do to lose weight is give your body time to react to the food you eat -- slow down your eating.
If you break a meal into smaller parts - ie appetizer and main course or salad and main course, your body will tell you its getting full alot sooner than if you just eat one larger portion at once -- it takes the body something like 15 minutes to get the signal to your brain that it's done eating -- one of the main reasons why an appetizer course followed by a long wait for an entree at a restaurant almost always means you will eat less of the entree.
