pOrTiOn CoNtRoL


One of the simplest way to lose or maintain your scale digits is by understanding that size matters!!

THE RIGHT PORTIONS
- one serving of meat, fish or chicken should equate to the size of a deck of cards..
- one serving of baked potato is about the size of a computer mouse..
- one serving of cereals, chips, cooked rice or pasta should be size of your palm..
- one serving of fruit or vegetables should be the size of your fist..

IT'S IN THE SERVING
eat food in smaller bowls or plates.. through this may seem like a drastic move, research indicates that you eat less when food is served in a smeller dish compared to a large plate..

NO TRIANGLES!!




Limit wedge-shaped foods like pizza, pie and cake.. Recent research show that people have a tough time controlling their intake of wedge-shaped foods.. Cut your pizza or quiches into squares though it's an odd practice it's easier to judge how much you've eaten..
