Portion Control is critical to better eating

In order to achieve moderation while you eat, it's very important to control your portions; in other words you should always fill your plate or glass with smaller amount than what you think you need to eat. Especially if you are like me hate to throw food considering how many people suffer starvation in the US and around the world today. Anyway, not going off the subject too much, it will help you a lot taking smaller servings & if you are still hungry, have more. But, never fill your plate or glass too much at the beginning of your meal or even your snack. For example, if you will sit down to read or write or study & want some snack, do not grab the whole bag of chips or nuts, but rather bring a small plate & have a small portion because very often we get distracted with what we do & eat more than we need.
