I can't seem to eat a small salad. For some reason the vegetable portion is always a serving for three (never the protein) and the dressing is therefore too much as well and I always eat pretty much the whole thing. Usually I'm stuffed like a turkey and even sick at times. I don't know why I eat such a big salad and can't measure differently. I put it on a normal plate, but it becomes a mountain. How embarrassing to share this.... HELP PLEASE.

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
put your salad on a normal plate, just like you always do. on top of your plate, put a big coffee mug. small cereal bowl. measuring cup, etc., upside down, covering the salad. any salad that doesn't fit inside -- take it off the plate.
as far as protein, when you're measuring it out, it should be about the size of your fist, so set it out on a plate and hold your fist up to it, adjust accordingly.
Dressing? Here's my husband's tip. He put's it in a small bowl/ramekin and dips eatch bite in, giving himself just as much as he wants on each bite.
good luck! and hey -- at least you're eating too much salad and not too many burgers :)
