Do you forget?

I have lots of my recipes created and saved in mfp and sometimes I forget what the serving size was. I was just looking through recipes and came across my carrot cake recipe and can't remember how many slices the cake would be to make each serving 190 calories. I will write this info in a book from now on too. What do you do?

I measure everything out either in cups or grams, and then put that right in the name. Say a pot of chili is a total 8 or so cups, 1 cup is a serving and I name it "chili 1c serv" Something like a cake, I'd weigh the whole thing in grams and as long as I weigh my individual piece, it can be cut up in random sizes and I always know how much I'm getting. If the whole thing was 900g I put 900 in the servings box, and I record how many grams I'm getting as servings.
