Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Found the information to be helpful and easy to read and understand. Gives a more practical way to judge portion size.
same as the first

Same as the first except in the back there is a 30day portion tracker. But either way the information is great. The first book has helped me to lose 30 pounds so far. I'll keep this book at work and leave the other at home.
Practical guide to portion control
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Although I ate good meals, portions were always a struggle for me. I found myself eating a portion as big as my husband and he is a foot taler than I am and nearly a third bigger!. No wonder I was putting on weight. The book inidcates how portions have been growing and that most of us just eat what is in front of us. It gives practical solutions to managing portion control, by understanding what a serving is compared to a portion. What a serving actually equates to and how to choose realistic portions. Thus not being deprived of anything we like, but still being able to lose weight. It's not a diet, but a way to retrain yourself to eat.

WOW!! I love this book. Now here is a book based on real research as well as common sense. The Portion Teller doesn't eliminate any food groups or bombard you with silly and unrealistic rules. Instead, it's about portion-control! And, you don't have to eliminate your favorite foods. You should just eat your favorite decadent treats in moderation, while eating more fruits, veggies, and other healthy choices. It makes perfect sense is very easy to follow. Here is a program for life. I love the visual icons, the meal plans, and the food diary. And those food equations are shocking--who would have ever thought that a big steak was equivalent in protein to 18 eggs! The sidebars, charts, and portion shockers are also quite an eye opener as well as lots of fun to read. Kudos!

As physicians who care for patients we are often confronted with the frustrations of failed attempts at weight loss. The Portion Teller will prove to be a useful tool in aiding us to manage overweight patients and hopefully end the frustrating cycle of failure seen with most conventional diets. We are leaving a copy of the book in our waiting room to help our patients understand this novel way of weight loss Sincerely.A satified physician
