Hi anne, this is so true,

another version is-

If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you have always got.

I find it difficult to eat slowly too, Ive always rushed my food, even when I was little.

I try to put my knife and fork down between each mouthful, it feels daft but it does make me more conscious of what I am doing.

We could imagine that we are all sat round a table together, watching, making sure that we are all eating slowly, would that work? I will try it and see!
