We all know that in order to lose weight we have to exercise, eat less and consume more fruits and veggies right? But even if we do all that we still need one more element to that equation and that’s portion control. On an earlier blog that I did I pointed out “Measure Up Bowls” as a way monitoring portions: http://blog.nutritiondata.com/dieting_weight_loss_blog/2010/04/the-last-couple-of-weeks-i-had-discussed-portion-sizes-for-valog. But now to add to the competition is what they call the “Perfect Plate,” at slimware.com. They are cute little yellow plates with a floral design of sunflowers. You pile your veggies over a large sunflower and place your protein over the smallest sunflower. Your medium sunflower is for a moderate portion of your grains. The amounts may not be enough for you big guys but for women they seem pretty appropriate.
