Portion control is something I'm forever struggling with. It's not that I don't understand it...when I pay attention, weigh, measure and read labels, I do lose weight. It's more that I don't practice it consistently.
My friend and colleague, Jill Rodriguez has impressive credentials. She's a certified personal trainer as well as a certified sports nutritionist. I stumbled on her recent series of videos on Ten Strategies for Portion Control and want to share them with you. They've been a great reminder and motivation for me to stay on track. My food scale is always on my counter, not tucked away in a cupboard!
Watch video #1, then watch videos 2 - 10.
What's your favorite strategy for portion control? Be sure to follow Jill on twitter so you don't miss any of her weight loss tips!
My favorite strategy for portion control is eating oatmeal in the morning. The hungriest part of the day for me is lunch so when I eat a big bowl of complex carbs, it really helps to curve my appetite.

I agree with Alan, I make a point of having a good quality carb source in the monring and then that sets me up for the rest of the day.

A diet plan is very important when losing weight. The best training system in the world cannot outdo a terrible diet filled with junk food, etc. It's all about faith and determination.
