    When you weigh the chicken, it will say 12 oz. If you log that as "chicken breast - 1 piece" 300 calories. That is ridiculous. Find an entry that has weight in oz or g. Then, add different oz's or g's and see the difference in calories.

    Most people new to this are shocked at how much they are overeating and how weighing really improves the accuracy of logging calories.

    This is so true. I was amazed at how many extra calories I was having when I used spoons and cups. If I have some peanut butter on a cracker I weigh the cracker before and after I've put the pb on and then I knoW how much pb I've had in grams. That video really opened my eyes
