Size Is Everything!

This Sparked Me!

When I began watching my weight and trying to keep my portion control in check I changed from a large dinner plate to a medium sized plate to eat of. It makes it look like I have a lot of food on my plate but it's just the medium plate full instead of the large one. This makes it easy to watch my portion sizes.
