Knowing the right serving size makes a big difference. A lot of people overestimate how big a serving size is, and end up eating more than they expect.
Here are more guidelines to help you eat the right serving size.
Bread
The correct serving size for bread should be one slice, that has the size of a CD case.
This will provide you with about 70 calories. Choose whole grain bread that will provide you with a lot of dietary fiber, important vitamins and mineral like calcium, iron and zinc.
Pasta
For pasta, whether you choose spaghetti or penne, the correct amount is that of the size of a baseball.
This will provide you with about 150 calories. Enjoy your favorite pasta without going overboard. And if you feel like you are not satisfied, just add a big green salad next to your pasta and you will be satisfied in no time.
