This article from Obesity Action News summarizes my entire mealtime strategy in a single page. To summarize it even further:
- Fill half your plate with non-starchy vegetables, one quarter with protein, one quarter with fruit, whole grains, or starchy vegetables.
- Eat your vegetables first.
- What you eat last, you'll be most tempted to eat seconds of; so end your meal with something like salad.
The only thing I can add to it: start with a smaller plate to begin with. Mine are 8 1/2 inches. How big are your dinner plates?
