I just know it left me hungry, with its small portions and steamed vegies. I thought the examples of the HUGE servings of ice cream and orange juice were eye-opening. That's what we eat! And Scott reminds me that Ben and Jerry's had to re-size their containers for the Japanese market because the Japanese buy very small portions. <br /><br />I think it's just the American way to supersize their portions. Our friends in Austria lost weight as soon as they went back there (one intentionally, the other just by eating differently there). Don't put Ben on a diet, however. Babies just slim down naturally if you don't get them going on too much junk.Marjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10311246054829669722noreply@blogger.com
