This is the metod I used also, if they start to back up, put your hand behind their back legs so they have to sit.

I won't feed mine until they sit, then I put it down and tell them to wait. And they do that very well now.

At first I kept my hands on the dishes as I said wait and if they started to stand I picked it back up. After they got that, then I would let go of the dishes and put my hands in front of their faces as I said wait. And just gradually stood up as I kept saying wait. Now they sit I put the dishes down and say wait and I stand up they don't move until I say OK.
