Size matters

Healthy plate
“It occurred to me that the major problem [with other portion plates] was poor design: Who wants to put an ugly plate on their dinner table?” says artist/designer Jeffrey Harris. His whimsical style—artistically divided into sections for protein, veggies and carbs—serve as a visual and tactile reminder of how to eat healthfully. $24 each at jeffreyharris.net.

Portion patrol
Use each Portion Pal disk as a cutting board for the type of food it displays (meat, chicken, fish, sides and dessert). The dishwasher-safe product takes the guesswork out of healthy portion sizes. And the cheerful icons, particularly the cow, take the sting out of slicing your steak filet down to the size of a deck of cards. $18 for a set of five at portionpal.com.

Scaling back
The EatSmart Nutrition Scale comes with a database of 999 foods: All you have to do is place your grub on the scale, press a button and—voila—you know the nutrients and calorie count. Bonus: You can delete the weight of your serving dish for a more accurate reading and add 99 of your own foods to the library of saved foods. $75 at eatsmartproducts.com.
