Portion Size by Hand

Portion size is a huge issue in weight loss especially eating out. Use you hand to guide your portion sizes. Also, when you order your food, ask your waiter for a doggie bag ahead of the time, so you can put your extra portion of food in the container so you don't over eat. It might feel funny to ask that but this is your life and health, NEVER feel embarrass asking.

Remember:
OPEN HANDFUL - about 1 cup of food
TIGHT FIST - about 1/2 cup or 1 carb choice
FINGERS - about 4 cards per meal
PALM - about 3 or 5 oz. protein
THUMB - about 1 Tablespoon
THUMB TIP - about 1 teaspoon
