The Chatty Gourmet

One of the most important things I hear about being in the health food industry is that portion size is so important. If you look at our program you can see that we have three different portion sizes (calorie levels). Most young adults over eat and portion sizes at restaurants don't help. That's one of the main reasons our program works. If you aren't on our program or only eat dinner or a couple of our meals a week, it is a good idea to look at the size of the intake of the other meals you eat. One thing I can suggest is when you put food on your plate or are served a meal only eat half of it. If you have to, ask for a box right away and place the other half in the box so you are not tempted, and can have the rest as another meal. Or if you're at home and made your own plate, do so, and then put half of it back to keep you from overeating. I am sure you will find that you are not only satisfied but full as well. This way you get the taste of the food you like without the guilt...
