How to Lose Weight with "Portion Control & Exercise"

One of the key ways to lose weight and maintain a healthy weight is through portion control. Research has shown that Americans often underestimate how many calories they are consuming each day by as much as 25%.  You may have been one of the millions who have tried the “Low-carbohydrate (diet) which has come and gone, but portion control is here to stay.

Portion control is key to weight control.  By cutting back on how much of each food you eat at every meal, your calorie intake drops. Instead of being overwhelmed by the idea of a diet and swearing off your favorite foods, strive to control the serving sizes of the foods you already eat.

“It’s an approach you can live with your whole life".

Eating out presents problems because of the trend to supersize serving portions. What to do? Request a half order or plan to take half your serving home for the next day.

In the United States, about 650 people out of 1,000 are overweight or obese. Healthwise, this means they’re more likely to suffer from life-threatening illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Practice portion control, and exercise!
