This truly is an interesting concept. Wonder why it was named the Chinese Restaurant Effect? They should have called it the Overeating Effect! That is very useful information. Another reason to eat smaller sized meals.

In fact, another one of the 7 things common to those that are successful in losing weight and keeping it off was to eat smaller meals and to eat an average of 5 times a day. So maybe when people over eat this is one of the contributing factors to diabetes...
