Little way to be a big loser - after the holidays Part 3

Here are some small steps you could take :

1.Order two small appetizers instead of 1 big one.
Study shows that the average hamburger is 23% larger than their ancestor was in 1977. So, it's better to order a small pasta dish and a salad or soup instead.

2.Befriend the vending machine.
Though this might sound as if I've lost my mind, nibbling on a single servings from the vending machine when you can't help it is better than digging your way to the bottom of a megabag of chips from the big hypermarkets.

3.Start with salad
and eat less during the rest of the meal. Veggies are rich sources of fiber that will help you feel fuller. When salads were topped with low fat mozarella and low calorie Italian dressing instead of high fat alternatives, women ate 10% fewer calories over the course of the day.

Very good suggestions. I never thought of buying the small bag from the vending machine to stay will smaller portions.
