It is all about portion control! One thing that has helped me a lot thus far is having measuring cups and spoons readily available to measure portion sizes.
When making things like oatmeal, cottage cheese & fruit, peanut butter or even eating a sporadic treat, being able to measure out a portion has and will help me to count calories and has taught me more about portion controlling. If you are going out, slip them into a plastic baggy so you can measure out dressings, sauces and other foods to help you so you don't over eat! A little bit really does go a long way! :)
I went and bought an extra set of cheap, but cute, plastic measuring cups & spoons at Target. No way was I going to pack around my William & Sonoma measuring cups!
Healthy Wishes,
Alex
