SIT!…Don’t Stand

May 19, 2008 by Dr. Chris Axon 


You should never stand to eat!

You are probably thinking, “Who stands when they eat?” Most people do, however, we’re not talking about meals.

If you think about this for a moment you will quickly realize that most people stand when they are snacking. This means that if you are standing while you are eating, you are probably eating something that you had not planned for, ie. Cookies, crackers or potato chips. This snacking translates into 1/3 more extra calories that your body does not need each day. These foods are high in all of the things that make controlling weight impossible.

So when it comes to snacking; Plan what you eat, and take a seat!
