Test Your Knowledge

Think about the last meal or snack that you had. 

Can you describe:

how you ate?

• did you eat slowly?

• were you distracted?

• did you eat with others?

why you ate?

• were you hungry?

• was it offered to you?

what you ate?

• what food and drink did you have?

when you ate?

• what time was it?

• how long had it been since the last time you ate?

where you ate?

• were you in a space meant for eating?

how much you ate? 

• how much food and drink did you have?

Being able to recall and describe answers to these questions means you were likely being mindful of your eating habits.
