Limiting you and family members to appropriate portion sizes can help maintain healthy weights and avoid overeating.

The Letsmove.gov website offers these suggestions:

• Use smaller bowls and plates at home.
• Buy snacks in smaller packages.
• Don’t push kids to clean their plates. Instead, encourage them to stop eating when they’re full.
• Cook in larger batches, serving appropriate portions and freezing the rest.
• Measure appropriate portion sizes before serving. Avoid eating right out of the package.
