How do you manage portions?
A friend of mine who is visiting Spain now said when she went out to dinner last night and asked for a to go box, they were appalled. Apparently nobody in Madrid does that.
In no particular order, pauses. When dining, if I have an urge to eat more, I pause wait a few minutes to see if I’m really, truly hungry for more food. If eating in a restaurant, I try to eat half of the plate and “to go box” the rest for another meal. I’ll eyeball portion sizes, I’ve never used a scale. I tend to eat certain foods for which I have less willpower less often like pizza. If I’m at a sit-down burger joint, I don’t get fries. I’ll also choose a smaller burger or sandwich and resist getting the larger sizes. I buy and use smaller tortillas.
