    Hmm...I've just been using the generic large strawberry calorie counts of 7 for one berry. I suppose the difference in the counts per size are almost negligible. Pick one that seems appropriate.

    For things that vary in size you should get a food scale so you know how many ounces or grams you're consuming. My husband got a cheap one at Target for around $5 and it works really well.

    Slice up what you want to eat, and drop them on a food scale, and log it in grams. This is the most accurate way for EVERYTHNG. And food scales can be had for less than 20 bucks at walmart.

    food scale is a great idea. thanks! I usually estimate but a scale would be much more accurate!
