I ran across a website (pdf) that explains portion & measurements rather well I thought. I figured I would share with you all. It would be on pages 35-37.

After reading more of the pdf, I've found it to be actually quite informative. I think I will add this to my favorites.

Ha! Got to love this typo:

Tools you’ll need to help monitor portions:  Measuring cups and spoons  Food scale  6-inch plates and small bowels  Small utensils, such as baby spoons and shrimp forks
