Lunch and Dinner Two Handfull Diet items One meat item, One vegetable item Best time to eat Lunch is around 12pm Dinner should be around 5 pm Nothing to eat after 7 pm Suggested meals When you use the Handfull Diet technique, get as close as possible to the size of your hand as you can. We are not going to the letter here, but what we want to do is if you are going to eat something, it is best to go smaller than your hand, than to go bigger than you hand. If you are going to use condiments like salt, pepper, any dressing on a salad or cool whip to make a fruit salad. It's ok. Here is the rule " only use just enough to taste. One slice of bread is a portion size. Who would have known? I have always used two slices of bread all my life to make a sandwich. If you eat a sandwich, you'll have to use only one piece of bread and make half sandwich. It will be a little smaller than your hand but it will be about 1 and 1/2 inches tall so what you lack in hand size you make up in height. If it makes you feel better you can just take your hand and smash it down to 1 inch high if you want, since I love to be a kid, that's what I would do. If you make something like Lasagna, it's usually in a 8.5 by 11 inch pan and about two inches high. So when you cut the lasagna in square pieces. These square pieces for your diet have to be half the size of your hand. Your hand is only about 1 inch high and your piece of lasagna is 2 inches high. For your diet you will have to eat a piece of lasagna about half the size of your hand. so if you were to cut the lasagna in half from 2 inches high to 1 inch high and put the two pieces side by side it would fit the size of your hand. If you were to eat a piece of Chicken, for example: a leg, it wouldn't fit the size of your hand if you cut it off the bone. So two pieces of chicken legs is fine. Now a breast would, so only one piece here. Steak: find a piece in the package that is close to the size of your hand or if it is a roast, well I think you can get the picture here.
