List some strategies that you can use to control your portion sizes at home, when eating out, and when shopping

What will be an ideal response?


At home, measure food to develop an "eye" for correct sizes, use smaller plates, keep serving dishes off the table, store leftovers in measured portions, avoid eating snacks directly from the bag or box, and cook smaller portions. When eating out, ask for half orders, choose an appetizer as the entrée, and take part of the meal home. When shopping, read food labels, buy pre-portioned servings, and divide packages of snacks into individual portions.
