[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Snacking. Thats the #1 reason in my opinion. Eating between meals never gives your insulin a chance to go down.[/quote] For sure. I remember being starving before dinner or when out of the house and just having to wait. Now kids (mine included!) get snacks pretty much on demand. Even if it's fresh veggies before dinner, it's still SOMETHING that's stopping that starving feeling. And portion sizes are enormous. My DH and I often split a burger and a salad at restaurants. He recently commented how funny it is that that's all the meat he needs, then was like "well yep true" when I commented that half of a modern burger is the same number of ounces as an entire burger a generation ago. We have family in Europe as well and visiting is a good reminder that adults don't NEED the portions we all are used to.[/quote]
