THE IMPORTANCE OF
PORTION CONTROL
PROTEINS
VEGETABLES
GRAINS
FRUITS
You’ve probably noticed that, over the years, food portions in restaurants have grown considerably larger, and with it, our
waistlines. Although, if you haven’t noticed, it’s understandable. These over-stuffed plates have created a new normal. Which
helps explain why, today, more than two-thirds of adults in the U.S. are considered to be overweight or obese.1
TAKE BACK CONTROL OF YOUR PORTIONS, STARTING WITH MAKING HEALTHIER
FOOD CHOICES. AND WITH THE RUBBERMAID® balance™ Meal Kit, PACKING A
LUNCH WITH THE RIGHT PORTION SIZES IS EASY.

Today’s larger portions can add unintentional calories to your diet, which can add extra inches to your waistline. Making healthy
food choices also means downsizing to healthier portion sizes. Here are some tips to help keep your portions, and your calories,
under control.
PORTION CONTROL TIPS:
SIZING UP THE RIGHT
PORTION SIZE
Use smaller plates
for smaller portions
and waistlines
At a restaurant, box
up half your meal
before you start eating
Eat a healthy appetizer
and soup or salad
instead of an entrée
Scan food labels and
restaurant menus
for hidden calories
Learn to “eyeball”
your food to make sure
it is sized just right
Split a dish, and
the total calories,
with a friend

calling, it’s better

WHY PACKING A LUNCH
MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE
Eating out means extra calories. A packed lunch
can also be more trimming. A survey conducted by
the The New York City Bureau of Chronic Disease
Prevention and Control found that a restaurant lunch
averaged about 827 calories. While 34% of those
surveyed ordered meals averaging 1,000 calories or
more — calories that over the course of a year could
lead to weight gain and other health problems.
You won’t just be saving on calories. According
to bankrate.com, it costs about $3 to pack your
own lunch, or around 30% to 50% less than eating
at a restaurant.
While according to MSN Money, with the average
restaurant lunch costing around $9, buying lunch every
day would cost about $2,340 a year. Money that would be
better served packing for a vacation.
You’ll know what you’re eating. That’s because you’re
doing the packing. With so many healthy foods to choose
from, there’s no limit to the tastefully nutritious meals you
can pack — balanced meals that combine ingredients from
the four major food groups. Properly-sized and affordable
portions designed to help keep the weight off and the
savings up.
PACKING YOUR OWN LUNCH GIVES YOU A LOT MORE CONTROL OVER WHAT YOU
EAT, COMPARED TO WHAT YOU MIGHT FIND AT THE CORNER CAFÉ.

HEALTHY EATING IS ALL
ABOUT BALANCE
START BY CHOOSING FROM THE
FOUR MAIN FOOD GROUPS IN THE
RIGHT AMOUNTS.
No one food will give you all the nutrients your body
needs. So choose from a variety of foods from each food
group to build a healthy meal. And don’t forget, how much
you eat is just as important as what you eat. Obviously,
larger portions have more calories. But larger portions
also encourage you to eat more and underestimate how
much you’re actually eating.
The Rubbermaid®balance™Meal Kit can make
portion control easier. Its four containers are
specifically-portioned and color-coded for each of
the four main food groups. With the Rubbermaid®
balance™Meal Kit, you can feel confident that
lunch is a healthier size. Read on for tips about how
to incorporate the different food groups into your
diet to achieve the right balance.

Purple Protein Container
The Protein Group consists of all foods made from meat, poultry, seafood, beans
and peas, eggs, processed soy products, nuts and seeds. (Beans and peas are
also part of the Vegetable Group.) Protein foods are the building blocks of the
body and can help you feel satisfied after a meal.1
US Dietary Guidelines recommend eating a variety of protein foods, including at least 8 ounces
of cooked seafood per week. Opt for choices rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, trout,
sardines, anchovies, and Atlantic and Pacific mackerel. Vegetarian options include beans and peas,
soy foods, and nuts and seeds. Your meat and poultry choices should be lean or low-fat. And when
snacking on proteins, unsalted nuts and seeds will help keep your sodium intake low.
Portion Size – Most healthy adults should eat at least 5-1/2 to 6 ounces of protein each day.
Simply fill the purple protein container with lean or low-fat meat and poultry, or other protein
favorites; snap on the lid; then place the container into the Rubbermaid®balance™Meal Kit.
