Bolus Diet

This diet idea really would appeal to the technically minded person.

Phase I You don't change your eating habits. You take notes on how many swallows of food and non-water drink you take each day. You also note the bite size.

Phase II You take what you learned and simply reduce the number of swallows of food you take each day while maintaining the average bite size you measured before. So say you normally swallow 50 bolus' of food a day.

Try reducing that to 40 for six weeks and see what happens. Say you swallow 40 sips of cola each day. Reduce that to 30.

You don't have to change what you eat. Just how much. You focus on chewing your food better, increasing water intake while minimizing sugary drink intake.
