Portion control is a big buzzword in diet and weight loss lingo and learning to control how much ranks up there with what you eat. The Diet Plate, manufactured in the UK, can help you with both of those crucial weight loss musts by giving you a guide every time you pull out your dinner plate.

The Diet Plate helps you portion out servings of carbs and protein, as well as fruits and vegetables and fats. It's also a visual tool that -- in recent studies -- helped diabetics lose an average of 5% of their body weight over a six month period, a rate that's similar to the success of popular weight loss drugs.

The plates are also colorful and attractive and you can buy a children's version, cereal bowls, or a family pack as well.
