Blue plates

I've also heard if you put a blue light bulb in your fridge food will look less appealing. I, personally, don't eat blue food (there is no naturally blue food (and blueberries are purple)) so it might work for me. However, I think that these are just ways people are looking to make weight loss easy and we all know it's not. There is no magic pill or magic color to make us thinner.

Personally, I'll stick with eating off of smaller plates. Though I have noticed that when wearing my blue blocking lenses at night (I wear them for a sleep disorder) that things look unappetizing. Another thought on it, when food researchers are trying to diminish the impact of the appearance of food on their research they use an odd sort of red light.

how about a little self control? not going out to target and buying yourself all new dishes.

yup! blue is psychologically not an "appetizing" color (red and yellow are, like mcdonalds and in n' out)
but yes, i agree with erinsueburns in that eating off smaller plates would help a lot (possibly more)

I think beautiful plates are the way to go. I purchased some really nice plates that are trendy (they are small) and white. When I present food on them, it looks like an elegant, upscale meal to be savored. I tend to sit down and eat it that way, taking my time to have a nice meal.

I actually do have blue plates lol but they were free from my gma and I"m not picky

black...

This, and big.

Fiestaware cobalt blue dishware cuz I love the style and color....... But it doesn't seem to make me eat less:noway: Maybe I do need to switch to the salad plate

We used to have blue plates--didn't seem to make a difference. I find that using a smaller plate works well for me.

Concur. Plate size is way more important than color.

If this is the case, why not use blue food dye on everything? Cheaper than going out buying plates!

lol at mike. My plates are blue with a brown around the edge. because I liked them, not because they make you eat less.

Did they come from Target? I think I might have the same ones lol

Yay for self control!

I use paper plates. For everything.

My food I weigh and measure so plate size doesn't matter.

Know what's more important than size or color of plates? How much food you put on them. Know what's even more important than how much food you put on your plate? How much food you cram down your pie hole.

Little mind games and bullsh!t might work for a little while but eventually you're going to have to learn self control and take care of your *kitten*.
