Book Description: 'Your eyes are bigger than your stomach'. At one time or another, all of us have heard this familiar warning against overeating. We don't usually listen. Instead, we judge our portion sizes by what looks good to us, rather than by the actual healthy capacity of our stomachs. We often judge food by how it looks and by its size. Tiny wild strawberries, for example, are actually far sweeter than the enormous hothouse ones sold in grocery stores, but we don't care. We want strawberries the size of small apples. A small homemade muffin may be more flavorful and certainly healthier than the giant muffins offered at supermarkets and donut shops, but we want the Big muffin. And once we have that humongous muffin, we eat the entire thing, every sweet, fat-laden morsel. In fact, the more we're served, the more we eat. Portion size is one of the major culprits in today's obesity epidemic. Well over half the U.S. population is either overweight or obese, a fact that contributes to serious health risks. Even if your weight is currently within the 'normal' range, you may still be participating in America's super sized lifestyle, and eventually, your eating habits may endanger your health. This book will help you understand how Americans' eating habits have been shaped by their love of bigness. It will give you information about what's best for your long-term health, and it will allow you to super size your consciousness when it comes to food.
