[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Portion control is the most important thing. I eat pretty much whatever I want, but I keep the portions sensible, and I eat pretty slowly. This is the big difference between friends and family who are large and people who are thin. I can actually stop at two cookies, whereas friends who are constantly battling the bulge will eat a dozen. I'll grab a handful of potato chips, but then close up the bag and put it away. I'll have a huge salad (sensible, because fruits and veggies tend to be lower in calories), but just one slice of bread dipped in olive oil.
Also, it's important to always eat a carb with fat and protein.
Finally, if your budget allows, invest in high quality fruits and veggies. They taste better and make eating them more appealing. You cannot outrun your fork, so you might as well make the fork as healthy and tasty as possible.  [/quote]

The control is key. I generally eat what I want, I just try to eat a small amount. One cookie, one bite, smaller bowl, etc. And no seconds, unless it's vegetables. [/quote]

+2 portion control and don’t drink too much alcohol. It’s so hard to get in the habit though. If you’ve been overeating and overindulging your whole life, stopping at 2 cookies or a single serving of chips or a single glass of wine is going to feel incredibly difficult. If you’ve been careful with portions your whole life, stopping at 2 cookies is normal. I feel mentally gross and WTF when my friends “joke” about eating a whole sleeve of Thin Mints or whatever.
