You're hungry and you deserve to eat your dinner! Maybe...just not devour it the instant it's in front of you. There's a reason to slow down and take your time when you eat your food. When you eat fast, your digestive system begins to get backed up. Food digests at a certain rate so when you stuff yourself, you won't fully know what your stomach says until it all becomes processed.
When you eat fast, you'll feel like you're hungrier than you actually are. This can lead to overeating which can lead to exceeding nutritional goals or health risks. So when you eat, take some bites and take a breath. "Your food isn't going anywhere. Slow down!" Looks like Mom was right when she told us this.
