    I'm really sad about how much a serving of cereal really is.

    Yup, that and pasta.

    OK, there was supposed to a quote about an ounce of potato chips in there, this should make sense now!

    Im going to start using my scale for everything because I do eat a decent serving size of cereal so you're probably right. Plus, the more accurate I get the better results. Thanks for the info guys! Ill be sure to post if I find any surprises about my serving sizes.

    My great big plates look so empty now with proper portion sizes. A 4oz steak is super small. I saw the video about weighing before I started good so I didn't have a chance to be set in to bad a habit.

    I went out and bought a bunch more salad plates and put the normal dinner plates on a higher shelf since I hardly use them.

    I was actually really overestimating the calories in vegetables. I can eat so much more now that I weight them!
