If you don't put meat, you can save quite a few calories and it is better for you too. I grate a few things to make them more mouth friendly, like carrots and cabbage. I will slice some veggies really thin like Red onions, green peppers and squash. Of course, sliced tomato, will work with just lettuce for a great sandwich. Don't forget to use fresh herbs. I use Basil like lettuce on a tomato sandwich. I love the taste but thyme sprinkled on your sandwich picks it up too. Think veggies for those lunch sandwiches.

I like the smaller plate idea-will try it. Drink a full glass of water 10 to 15 minutes before you eat to fill you up and to get the water you need. I like the smaller plate idea-will try it.

Another trick that I like to do (when I have enough will power) is to take the portion that I want and then put a spoonful back. Nice to know that these little mindgames actually do have an effect!
