Perfect Portions
This simple and original idea, you just fill in the pieces of a perfect meal.
BACKGROUND
No matter if you're trying to lose a little or a lot of weight, everyone can use tools to help them meet and exceed their goals. One such tool from the As Seen On TV line of products is called Perfect Portions. The claim is "Just fill up your plate and lose the weight." The plate has built-in dividers with clear instructions so you know exactly how much of which foods to eat. You'll use this template to help you develop a better understanding of what you should be eating and remove any opportunity to include things you shouldn't.
With Perfect Portions, there's no weighing food or counting nutrition facts - you simply fill your plate, enjoy variety and tasty meals and lose pounds and inches.

DIET and NUTRITION
Perfect Portions provides guidance to help you make the right food choices. Perfect Portions comes with 10 Meal Plan Disks. Each disk has a blueprint that matches the shape of the divided sections on the plate. Fill each of those compartments with the specified food and end up with a balanced and nutritious meal. The 10 Meal Plan Disks are:
- Breakfast
- Fat Blaster Breakfast
- Fat Blaster Lunch/Dinner
- Seafood
- Beef
- Pork and Poultry
- Mexican
- Italian
- Chinese
- Combination Foods (such as casseroles, salads and soups)
There is also a Diabetic Meal Plan Disk available.
Perfect Portions provides a book with approved recipes. You'll find many classic favorites along side some new, healthier choices. A few examples are:
- Breakfast with pancakes, turkey sausage, strawberries and skim milk
- Lunch with a roast beef sandwich with tomato and lettuce, side salad, melon and light yogurt
- Dinner with orange roughy, asparagus, baked potato, mandarin oranges and sugar-free pudding
EXERCISE
Perfect Portions does not promote or provide any direction for exercise.
CONCLUSION
Perfect Portions is a simple tool to help individuals learn how to make balanced, nutrient rich meals that focus on health. It' not a quick diet tool, nor should it be considered a diet. Perfect Portions wants you to see this as the key to beginning a new lifestyle. You'll lose weight moderately, just a few pounds each month. Perfect Portions allows you to make your own meal choices, as long as you follow the blueprint provided for serving sizes. Perfect Portions will ensure you're getting plenty of fruits and veggies, as well as lean proteins, whole grains and even a sweet treat occasionally. Although Perfect Portions does not prescribe an exercise program it is advised that you visit with your physician to determine the right program for you.

I TRIED IT AND LOST 7 POUNDS THE FIRST WEEK. CAN'T WAIT UNTIL WEEK TWO IS OVER TO SEE HOW MUCH I LOSE THEN.
Is this the plate that LA Weight Loss promotes?
I just wanted to say that I purchased this new off ebay for $9. I see they have lots of them. I LOVE it. For me it not only helps me remember my portions (which seem to grow when I'm not being careful) but also helps me balance my meals - keeping me satisfied longer. Before perfect portions I don't think I was eating enough protein and I was hungry all day! I'm on my way to losing weight and I'm already feeling better after just a few days :) Check out ebay to save some money.
Hello, I was actually one of the first testers of this product, working with the creators to prove it's success. I was also involved in an Informmercial about this product. This product really worked for me. Like the description states..."takes all the guesswork out of portion control. It also includes a cookbook wiht some very good recipes. Try the turkey shepards pie! yum!
it seems elementary, but perfect portions has taken the guesswork out of eating the right amount of food
this is a great idea, but i can find any testimonials other than whats on the web site
