Measurments?

I have a quick question -with the problems i have been having laltey i am trying to be very careful with my food... I am trying to measure everything -- my question is this.. when measuring your foods.. now my dr say 1 cup/8oz of food

should i be measureing up to 8 oz on a scale or what would fit in a 1 cup measuring cup?? very confusing lol..

wish me luck thursday i go see the surgeon again to see what is going on here - very slow weight loss - possibly a leaking band..uggg im scared.

You measure by volume, not by weight. So, you would use a 1 cup measuring cup and not a scale.

Hope this helps!

Yes, I have little glass one-cup bowls that I usually eat out of. Theres a girl on here who has done fantastic called 2flyguys and if you look at her photos yo will see her holding up a tiny bowl...it has REALLY worked for her!

Thank you both so much - I was confused as silly as that sounds - but when you think about it 8oz of salad is way more than 1 cup full..

Thank you again.

I do use a food scale sometimes to check on the calories. We had ahi steaks the other night and I wondered what the ounces were because thats how the calories were given on the calorieking website...so I just weighed it. Then I wrote it down and found I couldnt even eat half of it...that happens a lot.
