Can you learn to be a mindful eater?

I have struggled with my weight my whole life. The last 10 years I have been able to keep my weight down, going back up occasionally but only about 20–25 lbs instead of the 80 extra lbs I used to lug around. That’s quite an accomplishment for me.
My problem is, I go into a sort of trance when I eat. The whole world sort of dissapears and unless I am on a strict program I can get out of control really fast.
I exercise regularly (Something I never did 10 years ago) and am really proud if the fact that I haven’t gained it all back.
I’m not looking for diet tips or recipes, I’m just wondering if its possible to change my mind set to actually “be present” while I eat and relax occasionally without getting out of control?
