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.
