Hey you know your body, and what you need to stay away from. If you have gotten your weight off the healthy way, and really want to stay healthy get everything BAD out of the kitchen, and stock up on ALL healthly FOODS!

I was getting really proud of myself. got 15 correct out of 16; that dairy question with the yogurt got me. I love reviewing real portion sizes. Restaurants usually serve two portions per entree; I usually get a to-go box and have the rest of the meal the next day. Stretches food dollars too!

10/16, good stuff here., but I would find having a serving the size of 2 dice for cheese VERY difficult... best to stay away from it all together. :(

This quiz was a good wakeup call for me! I always start out with the correct portions, and over time the portions get bigger.

A serving of cheese is 2 dice? I'm in Wisconsin!! I'd laugh if someone tried to pass that off as a serving of cheese.
