I struggle with portion size. I’ve known for a long time that my “stop eating mechanism” does not work. I love food, I love making food, and I love eating it. That makes for a dangerous combination when you’re trying to lose weight. For one thing, the food that I cook doesn’t break down into easily identified portions. So, I’ve always just eaten too much. The discovery that is helping me is that many premade foods are made in discrete portions, whether large or small.
