Same 😆 But I’m outside in the morning sun eating a bowl of plain Greek yogurt, frozen berries, half of banana, pumpkin seeds, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Does that counter balance it? Jk of course
Exactly what I was doing...but I actually stopped watching ...and ate mindfully! Lol . Guilt, but also wanted to try it out. In the old days people used to eat mindfully...no tv, mobiles...maybe that's ONE of the reasons why they were so slim! And obesity nowadays is at record levels. Junk food a huge contributo of course.
My mind usually switches back and forth between eating and watching TV, but this video has helped remind me of the benefits of mindful eating. Thanks for the video.
This video was so helpful. I’ve been eating while on my computer a lot lately, but will try my best to sit at the kitchen table without it. I also eat way too fast, and know that’s not a good thing. Partly due to waiting until I’m overly hungry. Putting my fork down in between bites will help for sure. I actually need a whole reset on my eating habits. Thank you Dr. Marks !
Much love to you. If it's possible for you, maybe preparing some of her favorite recipes might help you engage with those emotions instead of using food to escape them? That's what I did when my grandpa passed some years ago, and it really helped. Mind, bologna and mayonnaise on white bread with an inch-thick layer of pickles probably wasn't the best option health-wise. XD But it did help me feel my feelings.
7:08 There was a guy who had a show on PBS in the 70s, Dr Frank Field, and when he'd talk about health and eating he had a catch-phrase of "put your fork down between bites". Was reminded of it with this video.
I shared this with my husband so he can see it's not just me fussing! We're both diabetic with hectic lives. I take notes on your vids and go to the reference materials to learn more. Thanks Dr. Marks!!
A great way for religious folks to practice mindful eating is while saying grace. Try to think of the ingredients of what you're about to eat, where they come from and who made it possible that it's in your table, from the farmers to the grocery store folks
A question about eating when there are no apparent hunger cues. I have no appetite upon awakening and sometimes can go for hours without eating and may get a headachy feeling in mid afternoon which cues me to eat. I hear we should eat breakfast-should we even if we are not hungry?
I think it can also lead to undereating for certain brains. I'm AuDHD and have difficulty with interoception anyway, and when my scrolling-while-eating was worst, I eventually realized that I was missing meals. Despite it being fairly common with various neurotypes, I'd never had that particular problem before. I just wasn't feeling hunger at regular times. Or actually at all. I'd begin feeling shaky and nauseated, which is how I realized I needed to eat, but never did feel HUNGRY. Still can't keep my attention just on my food, but switching to eating while watching a TH-cam video at least pared it down to two things vying for my attention instead of meal + four hundred different social media posts. And after doing that for a while, my hunger cues came back. Still not at predictable times, but at least once a day, which is way better than never. XD
I always concentrate on my regular meals because I like to eat delicious things. I sometimes have a cozy audio book in the background. However, I focus on eating because I love the taste. However, I'm not above some snacks when they are not the focus sadly
Hey can i ask what happened if we are on Seroquel and take drugs ? Will Seroquel block drugs affecting ot they can cause other damage ? I will be glad on asnwer ❤
I eat very healthy, but boring food. As a result gustatory pleasure is minimal, so to stop eating I rely on feedback from stomach, and so I stop eating sooner. It means I am a little bit hungry all the time, but being only a little hungry means it is easy to ignore. Consequently I have lost 5Kg of weight over 2yrs.
Do people on the spectrum have difficulty with the interoceptive pathways? Thirst, hunger, appetite, pain, fatigue all seem to be difficult to process and they can evade my awareness. I have learned to be mindful as I eat. It helps with overeating.
Dr. Marks calling me out while I’m eating breakfast watching this. Thank you genuinely
🤣

Thank you Dr. Tracey
Mindfulness is a life changer. And the good news is that we can applicate these concepts to every aspect of our life🙌
Right!
Thanks you for this your comments. So I can applicate these concepts to every moment aspect of my life
my pleasure on my channel I bring topics like this one 🙌😊
So like if I’m in the house , then I would be mindfully thinking on all what’s in front of me that I see , hear , feel in that present moment
Eating on autopilot, lol. That’s great way putting it and explaining the science behind mindful eating. Thanks Dr Marks. Have a great day.
Who's watching while eating?😂
😂 Actually, this is one of the few times I’m NOT eating!

Mindful food preparation, leads to mindful eating🌺
Thank you, Dr. Marks. Very interesting. Best regards from across the pond
Thank you, Doctor Marks.
I’ve been comfort eating since June when my mom passed. Need to stop.
Sorry for your loss. May your mother rest sweetly from her labor here on Earth.
❣️Work toward your goal but, be patient with yourself. My condolences. I admire your strength.🤍
Much love to you.

You are what you eat. Truly

Such a helpful series. Thank you!

Thank you, Dr. Marks!! Excellent video!!
PTL…thank you for contributing; I intend to take three breaths before eating and putting my tools down between bites 💯💌!
I really appreciate you delivering this nutrition series. Looking forward to the exercise series next week 😊

I'm eating celery watching this and its actually helping. I must follow this advice more

My problem with eating is that what I cook is so delicious I want to keep eating even when I'm full 😢 specially cinnamon rolls 😢
2024 was a record setting year weight gain for me. This is interesting, thank you.
You save me more everyday ❤
thank you for the information, Doctor. BTW, food taste is more intense on the exhale than inhale. No idea why!
Excellent video.
Fascinating.
Thank ⚘️ You

Luv ur content 💕
How does this connect to conversation at the table while eating? Should we have a silent meal? :)
Thank you :)
Saw this video right as I was eating breakfast, smh
I think we evolved to be social eaters; when you are eating alone, it’s hard not to want to have some distraction.
thank u for this :)

Im currently snacking 😢😮
✌️
TLDR: only eat when you concentrate on eating.
Oh great, now I need an expert to tell me how to eat.
Me too!
Those are good techniques! I like the first two, so I'll try them. Thanks, Dr. Marks.🩵
