Mr Anon, I thought that being over weight had to do with input and outputs...i.e if you eat big meals you become obese, I did not know that the speed at which you eat has anything to do withweight gain. I disagree with you on this and I still think if you eat small meals and wolf them down you would not gain weight.. It is the quantity that matters not how you eat it.

according to the Scientists at Osaka University who did this study, compared with those who did not eat quickly, fast-eating men were 84% more likely to be overweight, and women were just over twice as likely.
