Ah-- great idea!
I actually took a ruler and measured our plates. We have 11" dinner plates and 9" salad plates. Been using the salad plates since then! I was using the dinner plates at first and thinking "this ain't so hard!" LOL. And then paying for it with a too full tummy.
I am SOOOO loving this "diet." Just got the book in the mail today and reading through it for some more motivation. Eating this way is helping me get more housework done!! Aw yeah! (I'm a SAHM with a 1yo,2yo,&4yo). I'm not preoccupied with what to snack on during naptime anymore...
And I'm really enjoying pouring my heart into great dinners and enjoying the heck out of eating them because I'm actually HUNGRY for them! What a concept! All that afternoon snacking used to spoil my dinner.
Loving this. What freedom!
Haven't seen any scale victories yet, but I'm waiting for TOM right now and feeling BLOATED. Hopefully by next week I'll feel a little better and possibly slimmer...
The NSV of no more food obsession is worth it all. I was truly and tearfully at the end of my rope. This is literally a God-send. Even if I never lose weight on this, I'll know I'm building a good habit, period and amen.
