We have small, medium and large plates... and as much as possible, I try to eat off of the medium plates (and bowls). I will easily eat whatever is put in front of me, so I am working to be more sensitive about portion control!
How big are the plates that you eat off of?

We usually eat off of salad plates. Somehow mosr of our every day dinner plates have disappeared over the years...

We have salad and dinner plates and tend/try to eat off our salad plates mainly for portion control.

We have large dinner plates and I wish we had some medium shape ones! I don't like the large ones because they are so heavy and don't fit well in the dishwasher.

I tend to use bowls more often than places. Most of the things we eat are soupy/saucy, so I like have it contained in a bowl. Plus, it helps me portion control better. DH always uses a dinner plate, though!

They are giant.. we have fiesta ware style plates and they're heavy and big. They were DH's before we moved in together but they're in such good shape, we still use them! Not good for portion control!

We almost always use bowls (the flat fiestaware ones). When we do use plates, it just depends on what food is going on it--if it'll fit on a small plate, I would rather use that because it takes up less space in the dishwasher.
