Here's a quick guide to food portion sizes using everyday objects.
A "serving" is the amount of food recommended to eat. A "portion" is the amount of food you choose to eat at any one time - which may be more or less than a serving.
Really, what size are your food portions? To see how much you are actually eating, pour your cereal into a regular bowl and then into a measuring cup. Do the same with you glasses, cups and plates.
