"A place to share ideas, support, and inspiration."
"I received my Balance Plates today and I am so impressed by your company and your customer service. I bought this as a gift for a friend who has been experimenting with portion control. I am hoping that this simple and elegant tool will help her to reach her goals, find a healthy balance, and feel great. In viewing your website and lovely PowerPoint presentation, I decided to buy an additional one for myself and I look forward to using it for each meal.
Thank you for the complimentary placemats and your personal note. I will recommend your company to all of my friends!"

Eat, live, and be in balance!
The Yin Yang symbol has inspired people for ages to live long, vigorous, well-balanced lives. Moderation in all aspects of life is key, and that goes beyond merely diet. You can live life to the fullest if you nurture the different facets that make up the dynamic symmetry of life. Understand and embrace the concepts of balance and moderation that the Yin Yang symbol represents.
Seek balance in work and play, exercise and rest, and emotional and physical needs. Concentrating solely on your work may likely lead to eroding friend and family relationships. Likewise, over-extending yourself to loved ones may leave you exhausted and preoccupied at work. Remember that adequate rest is equally important as exercise in your day...too much of one is not beneficial for the other. Know that devoting yourself to physical/material things can make you long for true meaning. Value, discover, and cultivate who you truly are as a person physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Using the plate will be your daily gentle remembrance.

"I've lost 45 lbs using The Balance Plate. My key to losing weight has been eating smarter portions, while balancing my proportions with a variety of healthy food. The Balance Plate does that and more. The Yin Yang design also reminds me daily to bring balance to my life through exercise and living well. It's guided and encouraged me to a happier lifestyle."

"I received my Balance Plate as I was preparing dinner. I quickly washed it to portion my meal. WOW! Was I ever surprised at the amount of food I'd been consuming. I looked at my husband's plate and realized that I would have dished out the same amount on mine."
C. Nelson, Milford, N.J.
"The placemats are so perfect for us! We are teaching healthy eating in science and fractions in math. Thank you so much!"
T. Scott, 2nd Grade Educator, Skyline Elementary
"The Balance Plate keeps me honest with my diet. I place it on my table as a permanent remembrance to eat wisely. I stay within the plate's sections for a properly sized meal and make sure to eat from all the food groups. I now also steam or grill my food instead of frying, and snack healthfully. I'm focused and positive when using the Balance Plate."
N. Martinez, Indianapolis, In.
"Got my balance plate today it is wonderful. Gave my friend one as an early birthday gift. Saved the other for a gift at TOPS. It looks as good in real life as in the picture."
S. Leow, Rogers City, Mi.
"My kids love The Rainbow Plate! I've always had a difficult time trying to make healthy balanced meals that my children will like. Getting them to try vegetables and new foods was like pulling teeth. With the Rainbow Plate, meal time has become fun time...they now ask for colorful vegetables, fruits, and foods so they can EAT A RAINBOW at dinner!"
