    I have no idea with the grams. I usually look for log entries with ounces or cups because I can usually figure those out.

    Hi ... the weight of meat, cheese etc is down to the density so I find that it's not easy to work out without a scales. Once you've weighed a couple of times you probably won't need to do it much. Most packages list the weight and if you're buying fresh there's usually a scales in the shop. I'm sure others on here will have a better answer! :)
