I have noticed something brand new that is really helping...

My problem is mainly in the evening..

My portions are huge!! I will start with a regular portion, then go back for more... :(

What I did about a week ago, by accident (lol) was eat my dinner (measured to calories) and after I was finished, I felt like I could eat more (my weakness). Instead, I waited 15 minutes and what I noticed was GREAT !!!

What I noticed is I really didn't WANT any more helpings of dinner....

I don't know if this suggestion will help everyone, but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try!! :)

    That does help actually, they say the brain takes like 7 minutes to catch up with your stomach so it makes sense that waiting will help you not over eat. Also, eating slowly helps I've noticed and talking in between bites :)

    I should try this...dinners are my enemy too. I can't stop wanting more after I eat a supposed to be good portion of dinner. :(
