Introducing Turbo13 from Nutrisystem: 3 Reasons Why Portion Sizes Matter
A big thanks to Nutrisystem for providing and sponsoring this guest post content.
Honesty is an important part of weight loss. In order to begin the process of losing weight, you need to be honest with yourself. For years, there has been one thing I’ve told myself and that’s “portion sizes don’t matter.” This couldn’t be further from the truth! Going up for seconds or thirds probably hasn’t been the best thing I’ve done for my body. If you are like me and need to lose a few pounds this year, reducing the portion sizes of the foods you eat is a great place to start. That’s the premise of Nutrisystem’s Turbo13 weight loss program. With this program, you get perfectly portioned, healthier versions of all your favorite foods delivered right to your door. Read on for three reasons portion size matters, and then how Nutrisystem’s Turbo13 program makes it easy to always eat the right portion sizes.
#1. Eating too much can lead to weight gain.
This is so hard! However, sticking to recommended portion sizes can really help us to stay on the right track in the weight loss department. That’s because when you overdo it on the portion sizes, you’re eating more calories and sometimes fat, sugar and sodium than you should. And we all know what happens when we eat too many of these… the scale (and our jeans!) become our enemy.
#2. Your mind needs to know when to stop.
Have you ever gone to the movies and you couldn’t stop eating that delicious popcorn or a restaurant where you can’t get enough of that buttery bread? As humans, sometimes we just don’t know our limits. And just because we can eat more doesn’t mean we should. Portion sizes matter. Otherwise, we’d continue eating until we couldn’t stand. Your brain needs an official “Hey, you’ve eaten enough, time to stop eating and move onto another activity” signal.
#3. The right portion size can help you lose weight.
In my endeavor to lose weight this year, I have come to realize that the portion sizes I’m eating aren’t okay. It’s true that the right portion sizes can help you lose weight. When you eat out, the portions they give you tend to be MUCH bigger than your body could ever need. However, you eat it because you don’t want to waste it. Right? Just keep in mind that the right portion sizes can be effective in helping you lose weight. Eating smaller portions means eating fewer calories. Reducing your calorie intake is how you’ll start dropping pounds.
So how do you know what a portion size of common foods should look like?
I love this infographic from Nutrisystem. Sometimes you just need a visual to help you “measure” or see how much you’re eating. So, know that portion sizes are important because your body needs the right portions to keep you at the right size.
