EAT-IN PORTIONS

We always believe the key to weight loss and disease management is to eat foods that are
HEALTHY and LOW CALORIE.
But somehow it has not worked out well and we fail to achieve desired results. So what do
we do? Most of us give up on seeing little or no difference and get back to our old eating
habits and lifestyle.
Well its not about just eating healthy low calorie food. There is another mantra which
needs our attention and that is PORTION SIZE.
A portion size means eating the right amount/quantity of food as per the requirement of
the body to attain its ideal weight according to the height and body type.
Here is where things go wrong.
As was said WHAT you place on your plate reflects your body size should be re written as
WHAT and HOW MUCH you place on your plate reflects your body size

SIZE MATTERSEVEN WHEN IT COMES TO PORTIONS OF FOOD

Think twice before UPSIZING your meal, it may save you some money but it will certainly
add a few pounds to the body.

EATING HEALTHY FOODS DOES NOT MEAN EATING AS MUCH AS YOU WANT

At BALANCE, weight loss , the core of our progamme is built around a very systematic and
scientific approach. It is called EAT IN PORTIONS.
Through this, you are taught to eat in portion sizes that are required by you as per your goal
during ACTIVE phase of the programme. Our weight loss experts along with KHYATI RUPANI
have after a lot of research come up with this module.
Various household measures like teaspoon, katori and glass are used to define your intake
of particular foods including even the most basic items like salt, tea and fruits.
It is extremely simple, easy to follow, not time consuming and has a great impact on your
body weight and structure.
Please find attached your personalised diet chart. Images of an ideal katori, bowl, etc are
provided so there is no ambiguity in the size of your food portion and the one
recommended by us.
It has been very successfully used by clients across all countries and the all have benefitted
from it immensely.

Different foods have different portion sizes and this table for portion size will help you to
decrease your confusion.
