Studies show that if you take the edge off hunger before lunch and dinner, you'll eat less. Choose from one of our 100-calorie appetizers, then eat your main meal in the following order: vegetables first (which should take up about half your plate), then the protein, then the whole-grain carbohydrates. "Having veggies first satisfies your stomach and your brain," explains Young. "Fiber-packed veggies are filling, and your eyes see a big portion, so your brain thinks you're eating more too. By the time you get to the carbs—the danger zone for many people—you'll be ready to stop."
