Balancing Out Your Portions.

Conventional thought tells us that any food in moderation is okay. The key is finding exactly what "moderation" means. If you are struggling with your food intake, taking a look at your portion size is a good place to start. The tricky part is overcoming a subjective perception of portion size. Now, carrying around a set of measuring cups and a scale is pretty impractical, so how do you know what a reasonable portion means? Dr. Sharon House provides some useful comparisons to demonstrate healthy-sized portions. The technique is managable, and doesn't involve eating only grapefruit for a month. Certainly worth a look!
