Portion Sizes

A healthy portion is difficult to quantify, so it’s best to eat slowly and listen to what your body is telling you. You want to avoid the feeling of being “stuffed.”

A great tool to help with portion control is using smaller plates!

Remember, your body can sometimes confuse hunger with thirst, so next time try drinking a large glass of water before your meal or before you reach for a snack.

 

Tip: restaurants usually serve portions that are double the size of a normal healthy portion, so if you can, split the meal, purposely save half to be taken home, or ask for a half-sized portion!
