Nyght and the Giant Peach

Ok, let’s discuss portion control. It’s always been a big issue for me. I was the one going back for 2nds 3rds and 4ths, if something tasted really good. And honestly, sometimes if it didn’t. I would eat until I was stuffed. That was my signal to stop. If I had trouble breathing, I had had enough.

Under my new plan, I measure everything that goes into my mouth. It was hard at first to believe I could live on just 2oz of rice per meal. But I am actually ok. I am finally realizing that each meal is not my last, so I don’t have to eat like it is.



Let me share with you the difference between a serving size of fruit, in this case, a peach. This is what a regular size peach looks like when compared to the mutant one my hubby brought me looks like.

He figured, if I can only have one peach at a time, it better be a good one. This, is at least twice the size you should be eating. It has been supersized!

So what if you are out and about and need to eyeball a serving. What then?
Follow this easy guide.

And a good rule for meat is:

If they have beef and chicken, choose chicken

If they have chicken and fish, choose fish.
