As a French native I will happily share our real secret, although you have done and are doing a great job, all of your tips are part of the French lifestyle but the main one is to chew longer. Somehow the French do it and I think that's because we do indeed savor every bite as we treasure food but the reason it works so well is because saliva is the first digestive process your body starts, then food goes down to the your stomach and the rest of the digestive system where all kinds of fluids are there to take care of breaking down the food but it cannot do this properly if you swallow your food too fast and does not let your saliva prepare/pre digest the food for your intestines etc. On top of this, when you chew longer you eat less because you are more satisfied. Nature is very smart! Find a way to chew longer and you will see the difference in your approach to food, your digestion improving and overall great feeling! Enjoy!

I was married to a Frenchman, and lived in Cannes and Paris for 4 years. My husband harassed me to lose weight, lose weight, be thin, show your cheekbones. I ended up weighing about 112lbs. The middle and upper class women in the Cities attempted to remain stick thin to wear Couturier style clothes and appear elegant. Sad to say, many of the Frenchmen I knew had younger mistresses, so the wives were driven by the competition. Meanwhile in the countryside and small provincial towns, the women were naturally well rounded.

Your ex husband is so dumb. If he wanted a stick, why did he choose to marry someone that isn't French? It's not about your weight. He just wanted to lower your self esteem. Because French women are gorgeous, yet their "husbands", STILL have mistresses. It has nothing to do with you, it has everything to do with him. 💁‍♀️

@@ms.carlson3904 I have seen fast tremendous weight loss, just by extreme lowering of sodium. Many tomato paste for example, have zero sodium. Make all your own sauses. Many Jams have zero. Fresh, Fries have zero. Once a person becomes sodium balanced, they just do not crave it anymore. Sodium holds ALL the fat calorie, weight, because the body is scared to get dehydrated. We are also much more alert when sodium is low. Just read every label. No name tuna, for example is 14% while high end is 1%. Its like the gov purposefully wants folks less alert. I never watch fat content, only sodium, so it's not a diet, it's just a health and shopping choice. easy to google too, and there are no foods that you are not allowed to eat, and most often, much better tasting. You will learn your brands. Canned tomatoes too, come as zero sodium. I used lots of herbs. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Diane I understand loneliness completely. By eating in front of the television and while someone is talking makes you feel like you have someone dining with you. Perhaps if you prepared your tray ( or wherever you eat) more festive as though someone was really in the room with you, it would feel more like dining with friends or your late husband. Try it. Love your way. ❤️

..I read your comment and I am sorry for your loss , Diane .....It is often just a habit , that one gets into.

I understand, and it is a matter of shifting the mindset , and to be honest...I agree with Sandra when she commented that it would feel more like dining with someone, or even your late husband. Allow yourself to feel like you WANT to " treat yourself well", even when it comes to dining , and I wish you the best. Blessings~

Having been born and raised in Paris and then coming to the states for a long time, I can compare the two ways of shopping and eating and Sandra you are so right about adopting a more French approach. For exercise I find that I dislike gyms the atmosphere, the sweatiness, the lack of air and so the best thing for me is to not feel like I’m exercising when I take a walk every single day, sometimes long sometimes short depending on the day. At 62 I started running and it felt so good to do so. I enjoy your sound advice and agree with it.

Thank you, Sandra, for your wonderful tips! Keeping weight down is a struggle after menopause; however, I realized that I've always been an "emotional eater". I've been cutting the"bad" carbs and exercising every evening...nothing strenuous, just hand weights and resistance bands. Now, even though I dislike exercise, I find that I miss doing my little workout, if I don't! It's actually shown some positive results. It takes longer, and it's more work when we're older, but, it does feel good. I believe we must be proactive in trying to stay healthy. Blessings to you and Arthur...be well and safe! 🙂 Rosemarie 💖

Hi Sandra. You shared some great advice! I agree with all these suggestions. As I mentioned to you before, we are renovating an old apartment, here in Georgia (Europe). Our new place will have a fitness room and we already work out there, 5 days a week. I will also be making a goal to set a beautiful table, like you have, for sharing our meals together.

Christina I am so excited for you during your renovation of your new ‘old’ apartment.,It must be really hard work but a lot of fun seeing everything come together. I can understand your eating arrangement right now because it’s not a forever situation. You have to make do with what you have. When you do finish your renovations though how exciting it will be to dine leisurely with your husband. Keep us up to date on your progress!!❤️

I believe just being simple is key. I am 50 and just about every teenager I pass start talking to me like I’m their age. I’ve been this same size since high school due to fasting and cooking basic healthy along with eating raw vegetables 🥦 🥕 🥗 & juicing and never been on medication for anything except a painkiller when my wisdom tooth was pulled. Many people are emotional eaters and feeding into social media, constructs, trends and behaviors causes people to be distracted and then use food to soothe all this information that bombards snd clouds their judgment concerning themselves because they compare themselves to everyone and everything. It is simple and love how you refer to your setup when eating. It’s everything because it contributes to the detoxification of your well-being. Being conscious and living in the moment helps me enjoy the moment more than the food although the taste 👅 is palatable. Being healthy mentally, emotionally, spiritually aids in being healthy physically. Of course, all the tips you have provided are fabulous and true. Thanks for sharing!

Bea, I think we are all guilty of over eating sometimes. Or even guilty of emotional eating when we are not really hungry. It’s just important, at least for me, to think of eating and food and my relationship to food in a different way. If you start pushing yourself away when you’re full and perhaps using smaller plates for your food you will be surprised that you really will start to lose weight. Best of luck and I know you can do it.❤️

I think the French have it all right....food should be a celebration to be enjoyed with others or even alone.....not mindlessly consumed. Your table is set beautifully. I love having my food on a gorgeous setting and I am alone. I've been seeing this phrase on alot of foods lately...including restaurant portions "a thoughtful portion". I saw it on some frozen foods also. I think if we look at Americans Super Sized fast food industry it's easy to see why Americans are heavier than they have ever been in history. And it's like a rabbit hole...increased weight can increase health issues. Let thy food be thy medicine....is so true!

Thank you kindly for these reminders, Sandra. I'm guilty of eating on a TV tray but it's not fun to do a cute table for just ones self. My weight gain during the pandemic has been significant and at 71, it's become another battle. I'm very petite so the weight gain appears even more on me. Any theories why do we Americans eat so fast? I cannot do so when I eat with others it can become a problem. I love the way many European countries actually dine. Any solutions for what to do/say when those with you have simply shoveled their food in like it will disappear? -;)) Actually I'm serious. I absolutely agree on fasting at least one day per week. It just makes me feel better and isn't difficult. You've inspired me to eat more salads again. The weekend markets with fabulous fresh veggies will be happening soon again, I hope. As usual, you inspire me to take better care of myself. We appreciate you more than you realize I think. Have a wonderful week.

I know it sounds absolutely silly to set a nice placemat and pretty dishes out for just one. But I have found that if I turn on some nice music that gets my mood calmed, I can enjoy eating alone. Even if you still eat on your tray, make it more like dining with a nice plate or cloth napkin. You might just find yourself expanding to the table with a setting where you can dine instead of just eating. Put on your favorite music. Turn off the tv whole you are eating. Experiment with the pleasure of eating. Just that this time to slow down and enjoy the experience. I honestly don’t know why so many people do eat so fast like they’re not going to have another meal. It’s a mystery to me.❤️
