Wouldn't it be nice to have a cheat sheet to let you control portion size at meal time? You carry it with you at all times. It's your hand. Use the palm of your hand for a proper protein size. Use a fist for a good carbohydrate portion, and your thumb for a proper fat size to eat. Another method to control portions is the plate method. One half of your plate should be veggies. One quarter of the plate should be protein, and one quarter of the plate should be carbs. When you think before eating and control portions this way, you will jump start or maintain weight loss sizing of your food. Avoid extra sauces, toppings, and dessert. Now all hands on deck to control our eating portions.
