Use a spirit measure



  • or failing that, a
    tablespoon – to measure out
    drinks like gin or vodka. A standard
    pub measure of spirits is 25ml.
    1tbsp is 15ml, so just under 2tbsp
    counts as one single measure
    of spirits. (See p84 for more
    information on how units
    measureup.)

OCUS ON THE FOOD. Mindless eating, where
we are distracted, can mean we consume huge
portions of food without even realising. The solution
is easy: pay full attention to each and every mouthful.
That means sitting at a table, using a plate and cutlery,
chewing every mouthful well and employing a digital
detox (no TV, computer, smartphone or any other screen
to distract you). Remaining 100% focused on the food
means you’ll eat more slowly and eat less as a result.
