test-150Her worry: “How do I keep the weight from sneaking back on?”

Our expert says: “You can’t mess up too much as long as you stick with portion control,” Sharon Richter, MS, RD, says. That means not letting a dinner roll or slice of pizza turn into two or three. Also, pick your pleasures wisely—a glass of wine, a few bites of dessert, or a piece of chocolate per day won’t hurt. But adding in all of the above will. When in doubt, just stick to this simple rule: one-quarter plate starch, one-quarter plate protein, and the rest veggies!
