Q: Should I worry about “portion control” when I’m enjoying desserts?
A: No. You can eat an entire cake in one day using “sitting control”.
The cake must be eaten in different sittings. The term “sitting” however can be loosely defined. For example: you sit down and have a slice of cake. The phone rings so you get up to answer it. You are now back for your second “sitting” and your second slice of cake. You finish that slice and the dog is scratching at the back door to go out. You let the dog out and come back for another piece of cake. You finish that piece and there is a knock at the door. UPS is here and your new purchase made during a moment of weakness while watching the Home Shopping Network has arrived. Say hello to the UPS man and wish him a good day. You have most likely lifted something heavy, or at the very least emotionally taxing, you deserve another piece of cake. Do you get the gist of this? It’s all in how you define “sitting”.
Pros: Isn’t it obvious? CAKE
Cons: Going to the bathroom is just a “break” not a new sitting. Same thing with cutting someone else a piece of cake. Make sure you do something else in between servings or you’re going to get hit with all of the calories.
