Lesson 9: Food And Relapse Prevention - Slide 25
We Are Not Good At Estimating So Help Your Eyes Know When You’ve Eaten Enough
- Choose tall thin glasses, 8” instead of 12” plates, smaller bowls and spoons
- Put everything that you plan to eat on your plate and don’t take smaller servings
and go back for seconds
- Leave the chicken bones on your
plate until you are done eating
- Don’t eat directly from a package or
bowl, put what you intend to eat in
a small bowl and put the rest back in the kitchen
- Leave out the empty pop tins and candy bar wrappers so you know how much you are eating
