Try to proportion out your plate. 1/2 should be vegies and/or fruit, 1/4 should be a lean protien like fish, chicken, beef, or soy, and another 1/4 should be a WHOLE GRAIN carb like rice, pasta or bread. Also, look for the word WHOLE on ingredients lists for carbs like bread & pasta. Whole grains have more fiber that refined ones, so you'll feel fuller faster, which means you will eat less. Dont cut out all carbs because Carbs are your body's best energy source. Refined carbs like white bread can make you GAIN weight because they're not filling, which makes you eat more. go for nutrient-rich carbs like fruit, veggies, and whole grains.


Hope that helped!
