Gina’s Tip – Measuring Up


gtip

Are you a “topper off’er”… How well do you measure your food? Do you use a 1/2 cup but are one to go for the heaping half cup… Do you top off your tablespoon of nut butter??? Measuring your food is key to ensuring you are watching your servings size but how well do you measure??

A heaping 1/2 cup of oats compared to a measured 1/2 Cup… 1-2 meals a day, 7 days a week adds up to over 400 cals a week. That’s almost one pound in 8 weeks! Now let’s not even talk about the nut butter, which can easily add up to much more! 😉

Be sure to watch those “heaping” servings, a little here and a little there can definitely make a difference!
