Just look at the differences between portions sizes NOW and 20 years ago
I was making my lunch the other day, totally conscious.
Conscious of both the excessive amount of veg I put in the oven, the excessive amount of olive oil I poured over it and the excessive amount of noodles I cooked.
Why did I do this I asked myself?
Well, olive oil is a 'good' oil and If I hadn't cooked all the veg then I would have had to throw the rest away because it's been in the fridge too long and if I didn't use all the noodles I would have put back in the cupboard an amount too small for a portion...and anyway...it will save me having to cook dinner tonight.
What interesting excuses I am using to overeat - all attached to limiting beliefs of course.
So what if i have to throw food away, so what if I put a small portion of food back in the cupboard and why deprive myself of dinner just because I overate at lunch!
Does this story sound familiar?

Do you have similar habits?
How conscious are you of your portion size and how that fits in with your 'healthy eating'?
