APP CUES
• Small bites – one bite is about one cubic centimeter (~ ½ cubic in). Don’t panic - sure, it will take some work to adjust to small bites, but you’ll get good at it very fast.
• Thorough chewing – a certain number of chews in each bite is deliberately calculated to make sure that you chew each morsel properly, albeit not too long to bore you stiff.
• Never drink liquids while chewing! You may drink liquids in moderation after swallowing your food.
• The health score is rated on the scale from one to ten, with 1 being the worst and 10 - the healthiest food. Excessive calories and volume and nasty nutrients (sugar, trans fat, etc.) lower the health score, while moderate portions, high density of good nutrients, and abundance of antioxidants do just the opposite.
• Use the app consistently for the first 3-4 weeks to form a habit.
EATOMETER – PEDOMETER 4 EATING
Eatometer stats and charts track food intake and provide feedback and analysis - they help understand your eating habits and nudge you towards healthier eating practices.
• Time, Bites, Chews: calculates the total time you spent eating during one day, as well as the total number of bites and chews. Slow mindful eating is a source of relaxation and pleasure. Spend at least 90 minutes a day enjoying your food, take 200+ small bites, and make 5000+ chews.
• Health Score chart: calculates and displays your foods’ health score. Keep your average daily score above an 8.
• Texture Breakdown chart: calculates and displays the percentage of soft, medium, and firm foods in your diet. It is very easy to overeat soft foods and much harder to gorge on firm foods. The goal is to eat over 60% firm, under 30% medium, and under 10% soft foods daily.
• Calorie Breakdown chart: calculates and displays your daily/weekly calorie consumption. Calorie breakdown is updated after each meal.
• Number of Foods Consumed chart: calculates the number of foods consumed daily/weekly. Eat at least 10 foods with Eatom every day.
