Training the eye.


Just a few years ago, hubby and I could eat this as an appetizer.
Now, this salad and a half a sandwich is our full meal.
We have trained ourselves to eat just enough.

We order one entree and an extra salad for the two of us when we are at restaurants.
We order one glass of wine, and take turns sipping.
If the entree is too big, we take the rest home.

Training our eyes also trained our appetite.
We can  eat the leftovers after two hours or so if we are still hungry.
It works great!
Only our pocketbook is still fat!

How about you? How do you train yourself to eat enough but not too much?
