A lot of people have issues leaving food on their plates. I often have clients saying "I was always told to eat everything on my plate". This is especially difficult when you are eating out and have paid good money for your meal. I have a mantra that you can adopt... YOU PAY FOR A FULL STOMACH, NOT AN EMPTY PLATE In other words, if your feel full (which is likely if you've had surgery or are taking a GLP-1 medication), the food was delicious, and you've had a good evening with great company, then you've had your money's worth! Does anyone else have some wisdom to share about food waste?
