Healthy Girls Guide for Portions
“I don’t eat much.”
I hear this phrase often, so let’s talk about it!
The discussion isn’t how much you do or don’t eat.
The discussion is are you aware of your portions and why they add up to?
Let’s dive into this visual < I love visuals! > to break some things down.
Swiping through you can see there isn’t much difference between plates at first glance.
Tally it all up & it’s pretty significant at the end of the day.
This is one of the many reasons you should spend some time tracking your food.
You can use an app, like My Fitness Pal, a food scale, or hand measurements to keep track.
If you’re using hand measurements here’s some guidelines to follow:
▪️Protein - approx 30 grams is about the size of your palm or a deck of cards (3-4oz)
▪️Fats - approx 10 grams is about the size of your thumb or a ping pong ball.
▪️Complex Carbs - approx 30 grams is about the size of your cupped hand or a tennis ball.
▪️Non - Starchy Carbs - aim for a portion that is about the size of both your fists or a softball.
Learning about food & how to manage it allows for such freedom!!
