Mindless Eating

Why We Eat More Than We Think

Amazing and fun read. It's just amazing how we operate without ever considering what we are actually doing and end up eating Mindlessly all the time. I really loved the sense of humor the author had. It seems a lot of the experiments conducted, while had real implications, were often a lot of fun. One example was they left almonds on a desk for people of both normal and obese weight to see who would eat more almonds if the almonds were still in the shell. I wont spoil the surprise but one group would not eat almonds if they had to go through the effort of shell them. This book will open your eyes to the amount of calories we consume and don't even know it. I have no doubt that if you follow the suggestions in his final chapter and make small changes you will loose permanent pounds. Good read for anyone who is serious about changing their life and loosing those pesky pounds that Fab diets could never take off.
