Portion Distortion

Portion control, portion control, portion control!  Even healthy food has calories and the bottom line is that if you eat more calories than your body requires YOU WILL GAIN WEIGHT!  If a healthy snack has 100 calories per serving and there are 5 servings in the package be sure to measure the serving that we are eating.  A light snack can quickly become a meal if we don't watch our portions.  Try to keep meals between 300 and 500 calories and snacks between 100 and 300 calories.  Small frequent meals are the best because they increase your metabolism and keep you from getting too hungry between meals.
