Mindful eating. Yikes! Every now and then I’ll savor a truffle, the piquant flavor of a sweet Vidalia onion, or the bouquet of a Tuscan Chianti. But all too often, I eat mindlessly. I talk to my family and friends while I’m eating. And then I do the dishes. I automatically go through the motions without question. And then I’m surprised when I climb on the scale and - WHAT? - I’ve gained five pounds without a clue that it was happening.
