How portion control can help you maintain a healthy weight

How you build your plate at meal times can affect your body weight. If you don’t pay attention to your portions, your weekly caloric intake can add up. By taking control of your portions, you can maintain a healthy weight and help lower your cancer risk.

I feel like crap when I eat too much, but I have trouble convincing my eyes that they're seeing enough food to satisfy me when I try to cut portions in half. I'm attempting to retrain my brain to see the half-size portion as "adequate" so I can stick to portion control better.

Your dinnerware may also help in tricking your mind. I have a 25 year old set that has a red/green marble effect on the raised brim thats 2 inches wide. It holds half as much as a set that has no brim.And if you happen to go back for seconds with the brimmed plate,it equals 1 full plate of the non brim one.

That's the beauty of veggies, and growing your own... You can eat as much and as many of them as you want! (most of them). Farmers never go hungry.

Slowly trying to retrain myself to not over eat because I'm working through a binging and purging habit along with a newly diagnosed ulcer, this actually gives a rly good example of how to look at portions :)

I started measuring my portion sizes and my family laughs at me for it like I should have better things to do with my life😔 so I don't know if this was helpful or not🤷
