I'm a calorie counter, yes I am, and chocolate is a rare treat.

So I like having chocolate pudding (sugar free) every once in a while and when I do, I eat it with a teaspoon.

It lasts longer!

Am I the only one who does this? Sometimes I feel ridiculous, but it really does seem like I'm getting more than I am.

JW.

Can't say that I do... I just ate some chocolate protein pudding though... mmmm (20g of protein & 100 calories!)

I understand where you are coming from. I do not eat pudding but I eat my other foods with chopsticks or I use a teaspoon. It takes longer to eat so I gradually get full and I find it fun (especially with the chopsticks).

I always eat spoon-type foods with a teaspoon. Tablespoons are too big for me. I honestly don't even like the soup spoons at restaurants.

I am a teaspoon girl, too. My Mom and sis use teaspoons, and Dad uses a tablespoon. A tablespoon seems 'greedy' to me. (or man-sized, for Dad) I actually use a demi-tasse spoon for yogurt and ice cream, because it feels 'dainty', and it takes longer to eat.

I use teaspoons for everything, too the big ones just don't feel right.

yup.

Me too. The regular ones are just too big. What brand of pudding do you use for the protein? Does it taste normal?

Yeah, the smaller the spoon the longer the treat lasts!!!!

I eat all of my meals with children's size forks and spoons. Not only do I think that it makes the meal last longer and in turn I fill up faster. Some people may think that it is stupid, but I say if it works for me I will keep doing it.

I used to always use the larger spoons. I enjoyed my food more the more I got into my mouth at a time. Now I always use the smaller spoon, and I enjoy my food more. It slows me down, and puts the focus back on the actual food, instead of just on volume.

I have always used teaspoons. My new motto is quality not quantity. If I want chocolate or cheese or something else that I don't eat on a regular basis, I buy something uber yummy (and expensive). I tend to take my time and enjoy something more if I know it cost more money. Goofy, I know.

People think I'm a lunatic when they see me eating with my niece's miniature winnie the pooh knife and fork set, but do I care? No I don't, because it does last longer and deceives my mind into thinking I'm eating more!

Wait... aren't you supposed to use teaspoons for dessert?

I only use teaspoons. I just use tablespoons for cooking, not eating.
