Major Themes?

SLIDE 11
  • Portion control

– Don’t get trays and pay attention to plate size

  • Refrain from grabbing too many plates at once

– Veggies – ½ a plate, or more – Whole grains/starches – 1 fistful – Protein – size of your palm, ½ thick; like a deck of playing cards

Moderation

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Customization

  • Asking—nicely 

– Ask if you can have more veggies, less meat, no potatoes, etc. – If you don’t like to eat something, take it out

slide-13
SLIDE 13
  • If you feel hungry, you could just be

thirsty

  • Water down sweet beverages

Hydration

slide-14
SLIDE 14
  • Look for lean, protein-rich foods
  • Try different combinations
  • Eat slowly
  • Remember, all of the calories posted on the

website DO NOT include the sides you get. So if you add fries, add on about 300 calories

More Tips!
