    I believe that a rule of thumb is a piece of chicken breast/steak that is about the size of a deck of cards is 4 oz. Also, is there a cup measurement in the food diaries?

    Cup measurement...if you cut the food up and put it in a measuring cup, some of the foods will give a calorie count for that.
