Don’t forget about portion size

Keeping your portion sizes in check is beneficial for your health, too, not just for your wallet and the environment. Avoid buying large amounts of certain products. Try to determine how hungry you actually are. Ahh, and slow down. Fast eaters tend to overeat; therefore, they gain weight.

In fact, numerous studies point out that overeating leads to obesity, and it’s a big issue in our country. And because supersize often translates to super waste. A recent survey shows that if someone’s plate size is minimized by only 9 percent, the food waste can actually be reduced by over 25 percent.

So, make sure your serving sizes stay within a healthy range.
