Start your meal with a small plate of vegetables

Eat a few bites of vegetables before the rest of your food.

Why it helps

Starting with vegetables adds fibre and slows you down. It is a small habit that is easy to repeat.

How to do it

1. Prepare a small bowl of raw or cooked vegetables.
2. Eat them first, slowly.
3. Then enjoy the rest of your meal.

Make it easier

Start with a few carrot sticks.

Make it harder

Do it at both lunch and dinner.
