A method for controlling body weight. The method is based on assigning a Amples value to food items based on the mathematical calculation: Amples value=(E/P)/S, where E is the commonly expressed kilocalorie content of the food item; P is the propensity of the food item to elicit Passive Over Consumption; and S is the ability of the food item to create the feeling of satisfaction. Values are assigned to all food items based on observation, experience, case studies and education. Values can be changed for each individual based on their own experiences. Amples are tabulated in any easy to read reference form. The serving sizes upon which the calculations are based on readily estimable amounts using everyday spoons, bowls, plates, and baking dishes with values assigned based on an across-the-board average of all food items.
