So, I've been on a weight loss kick ever since I saw myself in some pictures and thought OH MY GOD!!!. One of my big changes has been portion control, so I've been measuring. My general plan is to measure the portions of protein and starch and I can have as much veggies and fruit that I want.

My nutritionist wants me to measure things exactly, but I have tried that before and find it makes me resentful and cranky to the point where I overeat more later.

Wedding dress! Whoo!

My nutritionist wants me to measure things exactly, but I have tried that before and find it makes me resentful and cranky to the point where I overeat more later.

There are tricks to this that make it easier to eyeball stuff but also be close to accurate (at least according to the nutritionist I saw years ago).

Such as, three ounces of meat (which is a more or less standard portion to go by at dinner) looks like a deck of cards. Meatballs should be the size of ping pong balls, or adjust accordingly, etc.
