No More Calorie Counting! Master portion control in three easy steps and start losing weight with The Mayo Clinic Diet. Get Started » Step 1: Spot serving sizes at a glance Portion control has never been easier — or more fun. With The Mayo Clinic Diet, turn weight loss into a game as you learn how to identify a food serving size by comparing it to an everyday object. 1 serving of cheese = 3 or 4 dice 1 serving of protein = 2/3 of a deck of cards 1 serving of vegetables = baseball Step 2: Distinguish servings vs. portions What's the difference? A serving is an exact amount of food, while portions are the amount of food you put on your plate. But put the measuring cups away! On The Mayo Clinic Diet you'll practice how to spot serving sizes, which will make portion control a breeze. Typical: 8 ounces 1 Serving: 4 ounces Step 3: Follow the Mayo Clinic Healthy Weight Pyramid Not sure if you are eating a balanced diet? You will learn how to eat the right amounts of nutritious foods — instead of obsessing over the calorie count in each bite. Let the pyramid be your guide!
