Food is and should be a pleasure.
One of the scientific food principles that intrigued me most was the idea that we shouldn’t restrict our eating;
The moment we consciously deny ourselves something, the more we’re likely to end up craving it more and more.
Our taste perceptions are biased by our imagination; Food for Thought
Take the time to make your food look awesome; your eyes eat first.
· Convenience leads to consumption and distractions really can slow us down. Put all of the unhealthy food in your fridge, in the drawers or bottom shelves.- Out of Sight, Out of Stomach
When we put all of our food on one plate–in other words see it all at once instead of going back for small plates, we eat less. When we see how much we have eaten, we stop eating. – Vision helps
Smaller cups, plates and bowls makes a huge difference. This helps you feel like you are eating more. EVERYONE eats more if given a larger portion.

With difficulty have been trying to implement some. Having read that in case we eat in smaller plates we tend to eat lesser, started trying to do so. Agree when we are very hungry, eating in small plate will not restrict the quantity, we will go for second serving. But when we eat in small plate, we should not use side plates.
