Tip #3: Fat Glasses

Studies show 72% of our calories come from food we eat on plates, bowls and glasses, which create visual illusions that cause us to misjudge the amount of food we eat.

We think a shorter glass holds a lesser amount than a taller glass. We focus on the height of what we pour and not the width. Studies show we drink 25% to 30% more in a short wide glass than a tall thinner glass.

Action: Replace your short, wide glasses with tall, slim ones. Buy small wine glasses.
