    it should say on he packaging (of give you some kind of info - IE 100g = 100cals so if the breast is 180g you cna work out how many cals it is?)

    The correct portion size for any type of meat is always 3-4 oz, which is about the palm of you hand or about the size of a deck of cards. :)

    I just pick a portion that fits my calories given the fact I need to spread them out between meals.
