Europeans seldom indulge in fast-food as frequently as Americans do. Until recently fast food hamburgers, french fries, and milkshakes were non-existent in Europe. As America’s fast-food giants expanded into new markets and spread across the world, the waist-lines of Europeans began to spread too. The influence of the excessive serving size in the western world has had negative effects on our European relatives who have managed their weight through careful portion control for centuries.

Another secret to weight control for Europeans is their ability to savor and enjoy their food serving size. Eating in European countries is an enjoyable and leisurely experience. Rather than grab a fat and calorie laden meal at the drive-through and eat on the road, they take time to find pleasure in eating.

They make it a priority to relax at meal times and enjoy the smell, texture, and taste of food. Meals are lighter and leisurely eaten, which assist them feel full and this gives the brain time to signal to their body that it has had enough food. Meal-time is a time to enjoy fellowship with friends and family. It is not a hectic, hurried experience, but a time to slow down and truly enjoy the tastes of food.

Savoring your food is much more satisfying in Europe as they experience the true flavors and combinations of food. Americans can learn a lot from the European people, who exercise self-control and manage their healthy serving size as a part of their everyday lives. Whether they are eating a leisurely meal with friends and family, enjoying a fast food meal, or preparing delicious home-cooked meals, they are always aware of what they eat.

So remember the European Secrets to portion control as your consider your serving size at meal times. Eat smaller portions of all the foods you enjoy. Indulge occasionally in a limited way. Take the time to savor the taste of food at meal time and enjoy the wonderful ritual that eating should be.

Have you ever wondered how European men and women control their weight better than Americans through their serving size at each meal? France is well-known for pastries dripping with sweetness and croissants and rolls lathered with hot buttery goodness. And who has not salivated over European desserts rich in sugary coatings, or marveled at the French consumption of red wine?

But Europeans are also known for their well-maintained weight. How do they do it? It is all about portion control. Food portion sizes in France and other European countries are very different from the United States. A ham sandwich serving size in France for example, consists of a couple of thinly sliced pieces of ham, fresh tomatoes, and spicy mustard on a baguette.

Compare that to the sandwich from your local deli, which has thick, heavy layers of ham, piles of cheese, mayonnaise or special sauces, and thick, hearty hoagie bread! The American version of a sandwich also comes with a heaping pile of potato chips or french fried potatoes! When a serving size like this is just for a sandwich it is no wonder that Americans are leading the world in obesity!

Europeans know how to say No to large portions and large meals. Although they do indulge in decadent desserts and rich food occasionally, they eat smaller portions of everything. Rather than consume a buttered croissant in one sitting, they will have half a croissant or a small, petite portion of a rich dessert.

They practice self-control and manage their portions of food responsibly. Successful self-control leads to successful portion control. By restricting their serving size whenever they eat, Europeans enjoy the benefits of eating any food they want and restricting their calorie intake to avoid gaining weight. Want to lose weight and keep it off? Consider this approach!
