If you eat faster, you tend to eat more. Your stomach needs approx. 20 minutes to be able to tell it's full. So, faster eating leads to more eating, and more eating, leads to weight gain.Originally posted by: MustangSVT
what does it matter if you eat fast anyways.

I'm a rediculously fast eater as well....I can scarf down a burrito as wide as your forearm and about 10" long in a couple of minutes...
Just how i've always been.

Hmm.. learned something new. According to this arcticle from
"Emotional Overeater"
In the case of fast eaters, because food is being consumed so quickly, the brain doesn?t have enough time to sense that the body has been fed and therefore ?switch off? the hunger signals. Physiologically, it takes about 20 minutes before your brain receives the stop signal from your stomach and intestines. Consequently, by the time this signal reaches your brain, you have overeaten and feel uncomfortable.
Wow, guess eating slow is actually good for you.

I eat fast.
No, that's doesn't mean that I'm not enjoying my food. I do enjoy food...a lot...I just like it best when it's fresh off my plate, not when it's been chewed up for five minutes in my mouth and has turned to mush.
No, it's not going to make me fat or give me indigestion. Maybe your body couldn't handle it, but mine can. My metabolism kicks ass, and my digestive system's not too shabby either. It doesn't require much preprocessing of food prior to digestion. Sure, maybe I eat more than I would if I was a slow eater, but I'm 6'2", 160lbs...if I ate any less, I'd shrivel up.
And I have no idea why eating fast seems to fundamentally offend some people. People are different, deal with it!
