Weightloss and diet tips to cut calories! Here's some easy tips for portion control!

I share weightloss tips with my patients every single day, and I want to share a few of them with all of you.

Cutting your portion size can really help with weightloss! The less food on your plate, the less calories you consume... it's that simple! 🍴

Try these tips to cut down your calorie intake:
-Always use a SMALL plate instead of a LARGE plate. 

Like this small plate (pictured with food) in comparison to the larger plate which is 2-3 times its size:


-Eat S-L-O-W-L-Y to give your brain time to process what you are eating

-Allow yourself to eat only 1/2 of a second helping if you are still hungry

-Drink plenty of water between bites so that you get full faster & your hunger signal goes away!

-Don't bring pots of food to the table. The table should just be for your plate and utensils. I always keep my pots on the kitchen stove. The farther it is from your reach, the less likely you will put more food in your plate.

Hope that helps some of you reach your weight loss goals!
