Diet Plate
Continued from The Diet Fork.
The Diet Plate Pretty colored rings inside a cereal bowl double as portion guides, a.k.a. the Diet Plate. Pour cereal up to the line that indicates a 140-calorie serving of that type of cereal (whether it is cornflakes or puffed wheat), then add 1/2 cup skim milk for a 200-calorie dish.
In a study from the University of Calgary in Alberta that included these bowls, 17 percent of people using portion-marked dishware lost at least 5 percent of their body weight over a six-month period. Serving sizes made simple?
Chew to lose Maybe we do not need “diet plates” or “diet forks” to lose weight, maybe we should just eat a little more of the chewy foods.
Eating chewy foods may help whittle you middle, a study from the National Institute of Health and Nutrition in Tokyo finds. Dense edibles (think chicken, cabbage and apples) tend to be low in calories.
Work those jaws!
