#Portion Sizes

Why are portion sizes IMPORTANT? ⬇️ Learning portion sizes can help you reach your protein intake DAILY! Portion sizes are a great way to know how to maintain, gain or lose weight! For a fully developed Adult the size of your palm ( fish is another story ) but in most meats it’s equivalent to 26g of protein ! How did I figure this out? I DIVIDED 26g by 2 = 13g of protein, brought out my ruler, and found 1/2 aka 13g of 26g leads all the way up to the highest line of my middle finger! Divided 13g by 2 = 6.5g of protein. 26+6.5= 32.5g MY GOAL PER MEAL so I would make sure my Protein Portions were at LEAST reaching the lowest line of my ring finger, nothing less. Now a way we can know how much we need to consume is by dividing our goal by the amount of meals we consume DAILY! Example: goal: 130g of protein DIVIDE by X meals = total protein you MUST consume PER MEAL PLEASE NOTE! It is NOT recommended to consume more than 50g of protein per meal unless you are a body builder! Wouldn’t strive for more than 150g per day especially when beginning . . . #portionsizes #portioncontrol #transformation #fatloss #fatlossjourney #fitness #fitnessgirl #fitnesstips #nutritiontips #meat #meatlover #soup #soupseason #newyears

We have to stop pretending that our portion sizes are normal. They’re not. They’re massive. And they’re one of the biggest reasons so many of us are struggling with weight, bloating, fatigue, and hormone chaos. Sharing meals isn’t weird. It’s smart. It’s how your body used to feel full before it got trained to think “full” meant stuffed and sleepy. Normalize splitting the entree. Normalize leaving food on the plate. Normalize eating until satisfied, not until it hurts. We don’t need to “clean our plate.” We need to start listening to our hormones again. P.S. Want help resetting your hunger hormones (like GLP-1, leptin & PYY)? Say “Hormones” and I’ll send you what worked for me. #perimenopausalwomen #40yearoldmoms #momsin50s #reducingcortisol #balancinghormones #Guthealth #menopause #hysterectomy #stressbelly #highcortisol

I'm back in the US 🇺🇸 here's the throwback of Texas portion sizes in my last @extra.emily collab 😭 #twitchstreamer #twitchclips #australian #asian #funnyclips #aussie #t10nat #extraemily #america #american #fastfood #americanfood #portion

If you’re on a calorie restricted meal plan with the goal of losing fat, then you might want to watch this! All too often we eyeball our portion sizes and end up loading our plate based on how hungry we think we are, rather than what our body actually needs. If you are serious about losing fat but you think weighing your food is a ball ache, then you may want to reconsider. The hard thing and the easy thing often yield different results. So do what’s right, not what’s easy 💛 #caloriecountingjourney #fatloss #eatsmart

Portion by ages ..

Das Auge isst mit 👀 und wenn wir das Gefühl bekommen, mehr gegessen zu haben, sind wir mit der gleichen Kalorienmenge auch satter 🍽️ Eine spannende Studie zeigt auch, dass die Tellergröße einen Einfluss darauf hat, wie viel wir uns als eine Portion auf den Teller geben. Je größer der Teller desto größer die Portion. Wenn man dazu noch davon ausgeht, dass man den Teller grundsätzlich aufisst, dann ist es auf jeden Fall eine sinnvolle Schlussfolgerung zum Abnehmen eher kleinere Teller zu nehmen. "Smaller dishware to reduce energy intake: fact or fiction?" Von Dana Lee Olstad & Clare Collins Versucht im Alltag drauf zu achten, dass ihr es euch selbst leicht macht, euch mit weniger Menge genauso satt zu fühlen. Entweder mit kleineren Tellern oder indem man das Brot so aufschneidet wie ich im Video 😁 #abnehmen2025 #ernährungsumstellung #abnehmtagebuch #gesundabnehmen #diät #endlichabnehmen #weightwatchersdeutschland #abnehmenleichtgemacht #gesundessen #implanbleiben #intervallfasten #wwmädels #kalorienzählen #abnehmrezepte #ohneverzicht ✨

How much have portion sizes grown? Someone said that McDonalds original portions would be considered small by todays standards. Is this true? There are actually a couple of research papers that compared the serving sizes that were originally on offer to modern day options. When looking at popular brands, a lot of products have options that are 2-5 times bigger than they used to be. For example, an original hamburger from the 1950s may still be on sale today, but it is now considered a ‘small’. Similar themes are seen across a lot of food products, from fast food burgers and fries to chocolate bars. You can also see it in drinks like beers and sodas. It was also observed that American portion sizes were often bigger than those available in Europe. For example, the first time I travelled to America, a lot of the appetisers were what I would consider main course size. It is believed that we may become accustomed to these larger portion sizes, and over time we just habitually get used to eating more food. Which is one of a bazillion contributory reasons why we are inclined to eat more food today than we would have 50 years ago. . . . #portionsizes #portions #caloriedeficit #flexibledieting #iifym #myfitnesspal #caloriecounting #insulin #calorie #calories #thermodynamics #fatloss #weightloss #fatlosstips #weightlosstips #fatlossmyths #weightlossmyths #personaltrainer #mcdonalds #burgerking #nutritionscience

Let's talk about portion sizes! 🤓 If you're trying to lose weight and think you need to starve or severely restrict yourself, think again! We all want our sweet treats (I know I do!🙋‍♀️), but excess calories = unwanted weight gain, and it's easy to go overboard on these calorie-dense treats. But that doesn’t mean you have to deprive yourself! It just means you need to be mindful and moderate your intake. Chips, cookies, candy, and the like all come with a nutrition label that suggests a serving size. That portion size may look smaller than what you're used to eating, and that’s because these foods are specifically designed to hit the ‘bliss point’—a perfect balance of salt, sugar, and fat to maximize pleasure and encourage us to keep eating long after we've passed the recommended serving. But if you can stick to the suggested portion, you can totally fit these treats into your day without guilt! That being said, you should usually aim to have just one serving of a treat per day, not multiple. Even when you're sticking to the recommended portions, having several treats adds up quickly! (Most servings are between 150-220 calories—now multiply that by 3! That’s a lot in a day.) Remember, the 80/20 rule! Control your food, don’t let it control you 🧠 Food freedom = a happier, healthier life My DMs are always open for 🆓 advice! 📬 #PortionSizes #Food #Nutrition #NutritionCoach #Fitness #Gym #MedicineHat #Alberta #Canada

This is what 500 calories of food looks like after you chew it. 🍔 - These portions of food all contain 500 calories, but some have more volume than others. This is highlighted even more when you see the volume once chewed. - Foods that are high in calories and low in volume probably won’t fill you up, meaning overconsumption of them makes excessive caloric intake more likely. Mainly because you’re not satisfied. If fat loss is the goal, eating foods that are low in calories, but high in volume is a good idea because you’ll feel fuller. This reduces the chances over consuming more calories. - This doesn’t mean you need to cut high calorie foods out. It means focusing on foods moderate to low in calories means you can still include any food in moderation and stay on track. 💪 - #nutrition #calories #dietplan
