Portion size? Does it matter!
Sometimes eating habits can be hard to change, wouldn’t you agree?
This is one of the reasons why so many people have trouble sticking to their weight loss goals. But this doesn’t mean it’s hard.
A recent study shows that portion sizes have TRIPLED over the past several years. You need to understand how the portion size you are eating is contributing to your weight.
If your portions of high fat, calorie dense foods, with low thermic effect are high, you are on course to gain weight.
On the other hand, if your portion sizes are large, but with high mass, low fat, high thermic effect foods, you are less likely to gain weight, and not starve in the process.
You can also balance out the two strategies by proportioning your meals, mixing larger amounts of high thermic foods on the plate, and smaller amounts of the calorically dense foods on the plate.
This way you satisfy both objectives, have the foods you like, and satisfy your appetite.
This is a learning process, but worth mastering
How to proportion your plate, eat as much as you want or anything you want is a lifetime skill. It’s worth learning because it can keep you thin.
