One of the keys to maintaining weight and staying healthy is portion control, but serving sizes can be rather vague and a pain to measure exactly. Instead of breaking out the scales and cups, compare food to real world objects like in this handy illustration.
Dear Lifehacker, In an attempt to lose some fat and get fit, I’ve started a new diet and exercise routine. It’s been a few weeks, and although I do feel better, I haven’t seen any physical signs of progress. Is there a better way to tell if I’m making any real progress or if need to work harder?
