    I think you need to do whatever works for you.
    It is very easy to underestimate the amount of food you are consuming, which is why most of us put on the pounds.
    If you continue to measure your food you'll soon get used to seeing the size of the portions and will gradually not need to measure, as you will know.

    Good luck,

    I measure everything, even a glass of milk. It drives everyone around me absolutely crazy!!
    this, and hubs hates that i have to go to the computer and log BEFORE I eat something. But it is working for me. I dont care what he thinks or anyone else at this point, besides, everyone else that says something to me about my measuring is overweight. And I just have a few of those cups from pampered chef with the cup measurement right on them. pour my milk into that and drink from there!

    Same here. MFP is addicting, I log in all the time and I measure everything. I also log in before and after I eat to make sure everything is accurate.
