the best benefit for me eating small portions is that I've noticed I am more energetic during the day.

Rosemary Pollard 4/24/2019 7:40 AMI also want to send a shout out to Hungry Harvest (local UMD graduate is founder) who rescues non-perfect produce and drops a lovely box of the same on my doorstep every other Sunday! Thanks to them I'm eating healthier, discovering new meals and helping the planet by reducing food waste and at the same time, providing healthy FREE produce in underserved areas. Check them out at: https://www.hungryharvest.net/

Rosemary Pollard 4/24/2019 6:25 AMI'm encouraged by individual states' actions to combat climate change even if the feds are lagging in action (or worse, working against it).
I am also minimizing (to the best of my ability) any one-use plastic items in my everday life. The statistics for the amount of plastic polluting our oceans is truly staggering and disheartening. -

REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Smaller PortionsFun fact: Your brain and stomach register feelings of fullness after about 20 minutes of eating. While dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come out of eating smaller portions?

We had the best time ever and the weather was just perfect :)
