That's why I wish places would just keep things available only in proper portion sizes, because I think it would resolve some of the obesity issues in the country (the ones that can be attributed to overeating). Sure, people would bitch about it, but hey, if it bothers them to order multiple servings, then they obviously know they shouldn't be eating that much anyway.

I think some of the "full feeling" is acquired by the sight of an empty plate/package. So, just make those plates/packages smaller.
