    Scale is an absolutely important tool, probably the most important.

    NEED for me anyway. I weigh everything I can now and have come to realize when I eyeballed and or used measuring cups there's a bigger difference than you think.

    I agree, I either over or underestimate my portions. I tend to underestimate my meat portions by a LOT. I guestimated a pork chop at 3-4 oz the other day, but when I weighed it, it was 8!!

    Food scale.
    Measuring cups.
    Measuring spoons.

    Must haves and lifesavers! Use them every single day.

    My scales are never away!! I think it'd be strange if I didn't weigh stuff anymore.

    Plus - it stops you from eating too big portion sizes but OMG imagine if you were UNDERESTIMATING... you'd be losing out on precious amounts of food you crazy woman!!
