Practical Power Tips for Over Eating:

Amount of Food at Each Meal: Hold your hands out in front of you and cup your hands into the shape of a bowl. Eat no more than you can fit into your cupped hands. Your stomach is about the same size and only needs this amount for you to feel full.

Remember to eat a balanced portions from each of the food groups.
Take the gambling out of guessing proportions. You can eat up to six ounces of lean meat a day. How much is that? You certainly will look awkward walking around with a scale at social events. Instead, try visualizing in your minds eye a deck of playing cards. A regular deck of cards represents about three ounces of meat.
About 15% of anyone’s diet should be protein. There are two things you should consider in order to continue eating red meat and keep your ticker ticking: portion & fat content. A person that consumes about 2,500 calories a day, eating 6 oz. of lean meat, more than sufficiently meets the daily requirement needed.
