So, tonight, I had a really great meal. A local Chinese restaurant called Shanghai Park, in the Princeton Shopping Center, always has good food. Tonight, I had a revelation.<\/p>\n

I read a book a while back, when I lost my first 100 pounds, and it had a deep impact on me. It’s The Volumetrics Eating Plan: Techniques and Recipes for Feeling Full on Fewer Calories<\/a>\u00a0by Barbara Rolls. While I highly suggest that you read it, I’ll give it to you in short here: Eating more vegetables in your dishes will help you to achieve satiation. while preventing you from eating too many calories. I can not tell you how very useful and beneficial this idea is to me, and while it’s common sense, sometimes we leave off the lettuce and tomato when the lettuce and tomato would fill us up better that the rest of the meal alone.<\/p>\n

Feeling satiated is a key to my success.<\/p>\n

So back to tonight, at Shanghai Park.<\/p>\n

I had their choose-3-steamed-vegetables dish with choice of sauce on the side, and choice of white or brown rice. I chose garlic sauce and brown rice, and what came out was essentially three mixed cups of\u00a0steamed broccoli (30 calories), string beans (30 calories), and snow peas (30 calories).<\/p>\n

\"Chinese<\/a>

Chinese dinner<\/p><\/div>\n

It was delicious, perfectly cooked, where everything still had texture and firmness to it. The vegetables were fresh, the garlic sauce (150 calories)\u00a0was a perfect accompaniment for dipping, and the brown rice\u00a0was fluffy and tender. I ate half (100 calories)\u00a0of the rice from the cup (200 calories)\u00a0they served me, and left half of it on the table. I had 4 glasses of water thanks to the steady and mindful service, and a full pot of tea (9 calories).<\/p>\n

I walked away with a full belly, but not uncomfortably so, and it was all told about 400 calories. I want to do that at least once a week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
