How To Be Satisfied...

Members Were Sparked

Honestly, the 920 Calories I ate yesterday in having a Peanut Buster Parfait with added caramel topping was no more satisfying than the half cup of Chocolate Almond Milk I just had to wash down my breakfast. The Chocolate Almond Milk only weighed in at 60 Calories!

LONG LIVE CHOCOLATE ALMOND MILK!!! :-D

Eat In Smaller Plate

I found by eating in a salad plate rather than a regular plate I am eating smaller portions and I drink a glass of water which makes me full therefore causing me not to want to eat more than I should. When I am done eating I don't feel stuffed and miserable, rather I am satisfied and very happy.

MORE INFORMATION:
Some of my favorite things to eat are fruits, vegetables and nuts.

Aha! Ditch the Fork!

Today, I just put the fork down. I didn't need to eat everything on my plate. I wasn't hungry. I am learning to know when I am satisfied. I smiled.

Optical Illusion

I use a smaller plate when I am eating pasta, or anything that looks "small" on a dinner plate - I find I am satisfied with the serving size because it doesn't look so small after all!
