When I go to eat, I think often of the words of Joyce Buhler, the dietician who is contributing to the Healthy Edge. Less than you want to eat is still more than you need. It works. When I really want to eat more, I think of that phrase. I'm sure it's saving me more than just a few calories.
Before, I didn't control my portions. I ate when I was hungry and I ate as much as I wanted to. I worked out enough that I maintained my weight well, but I didn't learn much about portion control. Now that I'm older, fighting baby fat, and still working hard to get my hips to move, I need to watch what I eat as well as work out.
Less than you want to eat is still more than you need.
