Quick Guide to Serving Sizes: How to Measure Your Food Without Stress

Updated: 7 days ago

Even if you choose clean foods, eating too much or too little can affect your energy and progress. Here is a simple way that I always use to measure my portions no scale needed!


🍠 Complex Carbs


These are your main energy source, great before and after workouts.

(oatmeal, brown rice, sweet potato, quinoa)


Portion size: 1 cupped hand



🍎 Fruits


Full of vitamins and perfect for snacks or after training.

Portion size:

  • Whole fruits: size of your fist (apple, orange)

  • Small fruits like berries or melon: 2 cupped hands


đŸ„Š Vegetables


Eat as many as you want! They’re high in fiber and very low in calories.


Portion size: UNLIMITED !


đŸ„‘ Healthy Fats


Important for hormones and feeling full, but calorie-dense, so measure carefully.

(avocado, olive oil, nut butter, seeds)


Portion size: size of your thumb.


🍗 Protein


Helps build and keep muscle while controlling hunger.

(chicken, fish, eggs, tofu, Greek yogurt)


Portion size:

  • Women: palm of your hand (without fingers)

  • Men: whole hand (with fingers)


Simple is always better!


Your Coach,
