Instead of using a full dinner plate, use a salad plate for your entire meal. That's how much we are supposed to eat anyway.

a portion is the amount that would fit in the palm of your hand or a 1/4 cup
Try eating fruits, yogurt or nuts for snacks, and eat something every 2-3 hours. Always take a multivitamin.
