That looks good, but I think that is way too much pasta. Just saying. 1 oz is a serving.  

Not sure how you can tell how much pasta this is. Only thing missing is some green (any veggies beside the sauce that is) - enjoy! 

As long as it fits their WOE and calories for the day, i don’t think they are necessarily limited to 1 oz of pasta. 

You don't know how big the plate is from the picture. I eat on small plates, Frequently 6".  

I'd say not enough pasta for me, but probably just what you intend for yourself. The colors, plate and purple table included, make this look all the more appetizing. Thanks! 

Looks good and yummy to me! So many times we have habits of eating large portions, so you are showing great will power! I've read a lot of articles that claim the reason most Americans are overweight is because our portions are too large, and are much larger than European portions. The articles claim Europeans are thinner than Americans, because their portions are smaller. This means you are on the right track to healthy eating! I have started doing the same thing a while back. I use a small 6 1/2" plates to give the illusion of there being more food on the plate. I just started using a 3 1/2" Ramadan for my night time snack. The snack must be able to fit in it. It keeps me from overeating. Kudos!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Is that ketchup? 

pasta with beetroot cream. A 100g portion. I'm Brazilian, we don't consume a lot of pasta.
