    Only eat 1/4 of all your dishes, and put the rest in a to-go box.

    Bring your own take home containers and box up what you aren't going to eat BEFORE you even start in on it. I find it a LOT easier to divide up the meal before I start eating it because once it's off my plate, I don't eat it.
