Quarterly Program:  Enjoy Eating

July - September 2008

Most of us love to eat, but do we really pay attention when we do it? 
How many of us eat quickly ... or while we watch TV, or read or work at our desks?  This quarter’s program focuses on WHAT we eat, not HOW we eat.

Program participants will be encouraged to sit down, chew slowly and take some time to eat.  All too many of us are shoveling food on our forks for the next bite before we’ve finished the one in our mouths!  ‘Shoveling’ makes us eat more and - guess what - put on pounds.

Enjoying eating will help stop unintended weight gain.  Join us for this quarter’s program to learn how to Enjoy Eating!

The Incentive

---

This quarterly program is also available at the
Commonwealth of Virginia Knowledge Center (COVA KC).

It's a great way to participate in CommonHealth programs
... without leaving your desk!
