Splitting Serving Sizes

If there is more than 1 serving in a package, I divide it into the number of servings it says into snack size bags.

Ingenuity, Moderation & Portion Control

Remembering that its not all or nothing, instead of giving up favorite foods, learn to make lighter versions. For snacks, cut & make single serving bags so as to not be tempted to eat more than you plan. Be creative w/recipes, try new foods & know its not always the food you eat but the serving size

Portion Control

In order to prevent that "mindless eating" that can occur when you buy larger packages of snack foods (such as crackers, almond, etc.), I keep snack size Ziploc baggies on hand. As soon as I bring the food home, I divide it out into "actual serving size" portions in the baggies, and store them in the cupboard. Then when I want a snack, I can just grab one of the pre-packaged baggies & not worry about the extra calories from over-estimating what I've eaten.
