PORTION SIZES, ladies and gentlemen. Now, everything in moderation is considered healthy. But for a standard meal, having an idea of what, and how much to eat, is helpful. Portion sizes are just a way for people to know a healthy amount of food to put on their plate. Now if you’re still hungry after eating whatever portion amount, than by all means, listen to your body. Here, let me say that again in case you weren’t listening the first time. Ahem… LISTEN TO YOUR BODY. That people, is the key to healthy living. when you’re tired, you sleep. (hopefully) when you know people are avoiding you because of your breath, you brush your teeth. Its common sense really, and the same should apply to your eating habits. Eat when you’re hungry, stop when you’re full. It is scientifically proven that people who listen to those signs remain at their desired weight within a pound. If you just lost 40 pounds and are worried about maintenance..don’t feel like you have to run for 2 hours at the Y every. Single. Agonizing. Day. Just listen to what you’re body is telling you.

sleep well, eat right, exercise. you'll be content and wake up/ go to bed a much happier and healthier person.
