Eat...MORE?

Ok I will be honest, I love to read but I REALLY love to read magazines. Its weird, I am 24 and I like to look at appealing pictures. I love art, food, fashion, home (although I don't own a home, I can imagine what it will look like when I build it) and cooking magazines. Currently I subscribe to Glamour and read it cover to cover and for the most part cry every time at the stories that they have of lives of real women. I'm a cry baby I know. But the first thing that I look at is their part on "You can have this, or ALL this" It shows you such easy portion control that you would be able to remember when ordering at a restaurant. So I think its in the March issue they had the food idea of a Turkey Club. 

You Can Have This: (left)
Turkey Club - 3 slices of white bread, turkey, bacon, mayo, lettuce & tomato
(640 Calories and 33 Grams of fat)


Or ALL This: (right)
Turkey BLT- 2 slices whole wheat bread, 3 slices roast turkey, 2 strips of bacon, 1 1/2 tsp mayo, lettuce & tomato. PLUS an apple and an oatmeal raisin cookie.
(640 Calories, 20 Grams of fat)

How CRAZY is that? I love the idea of showing people just an image of what it would look like if you opt out of having it on white bread and also skipping out on the 3 slice. You not only get dessert, but an apple too! 

I promise to those that are looking to loose weight during these springs months, portion control is where you will loose the most weight and keep it off. It is all about the LIFESTYLE you live and not the DIET you are on.
