4 Ways To Trim Servings
All foods can be part of your healthy diet, if you eat them in the correct amounts. But many of us don't know how big a single serving is, and the rest of us still still just super size every meal; instead of sticking to a reasonable portion.
How often is your cereal bowl filled with just 1 cup?
Try these 4 tips to get your servings down to size:
1. Dish out meals and snacks in single serve containers before storing them in the pantry, fridge or freezer.
2. At restaurants, when the mega-plate arrives, immediately cut it in half and ask the waiter to bring a second plate, and put it aside, or better yet have the waiter put it in a doggie bag at the start of the meal, so that way you will not be tempted by it.
3. Measure out proper portions for one week to learn what the serving size looks like.
4. Spend a little extra on pre-measured foods if that technique helps you eat less; it won't cost more in the end because you'd have finished the box faster the old way.
