[quote=Anonymous]I know that portion control is a huge problem for me. I legitimately have a big appetite and love food. I am also pretty active and on days I get 90 minutes of cardio doing the sport I love, I am HUNGRY and want to eat.

My biggest problems are: 
1) Working from home, eating while working on a computer or surfing the internet, I will just keep the lunch meal going on and on with more food. 
2) Dinner - if I have small portions, the rest of my family is still eating and I'm done and still hungry.

I am pretty good about not snacking but I just want huge lunches and dinners. I try to skip breakfast but can generally keep breakfast, when I do eat it, smaller. I find that I am no more or less hungry for lunch whether I skip breakfast or not. For example, if I have two scrambled eggs for breakfast, I am just as hungry for lunch as if I had had only coffee.

What are some tips to curb my appetite and be satisfied with less food? For lunches, I am going to stop doing anything else when I eat, so it's boring, and then leave the kitchen when my meal is done. Even if I'm still hungry.

What else can I do? Eat a ton of raw veggies before the meal? Other ideas that have really worked for people?[/quote]
