Isn't that just the truth? And the truth is, I'm not doing so great on portion control. My band is doing some of it, but the 'Kristin' part still needs, ahem, a lot of work.
I use small plates, try to put my fork down between bites and chew, chew, chew. I don't drink with meals except for when I have wine with dinner. I generally avoid slider foods. But limiting how much I put on my (much smaller) plate is something I'm still working on.
I keep reminding myself that it's not about how much I can shove in, it's about how little I can eat and still feel satisfied.
It's an ongoing process.
