What Is A Healthy Portion Size?
March 7, 2008
- Eat portions the size of your fist.
- Split your entree when dining out.
- Split your meal in half and then ask for a doggy bag.
- Ask for smaller portions. (example: lunch portions.
- Serve meals on salad plates
Control your portions!
- Store foods in small bags.
- Add fruit and vegetables to meals.
- Say “NO” to super-size.
- Pay attention to what you are eating.
- Avoid nibbling.
It is really about volumetrics!! E= eat L=less F=food.
Example of that is 20 years ago a chocolate chip cookie was 1.5 inches in diameter and 55 calories. Now it is 3.5 inches in diameter and 220 calories.
Look to the essentials and avoid the extra’s.
