Size Matters

It's a good idea to keep an eye on the size of your dinner plate. Why? Because we all know that we eat what is on our plate, no matter what size plate we use! So start taking control of your portion sizes by downsizing your plate size. It's an easy change you can make today, and it can make weight loss easier. Switch from a dinner plate to a salad plate, or buy a smaller plate to use just for your own meals.
It sounds too good to be true, but using smaller dishes can also help you feel full when eating less. Studies have shown that people feel more satisfied with less food when they are served on 8-inch salad plates in place of 12-inch dinner plates.
