Need Help Counting My Calories!

I wighed and I have drop 3 kilos in jkus one week.. I really though thta i was eatign well but it seemed that Im overetimating the claories... I NEED HELP!.

 I eat breakfast and dinner at my home but lunh on school... So i cannot have the portions so clear on luhc and i estimate..

Help me ! I was doing so good, i dont want to go back to where I was..!

Invest in a food scale for the meals you can prepare yourself. They are very, very useful if you are majorly overestimating.

For portions by visuals, look at http://www.mypyramid.gov, which has a list of example photos (measured!) at certain portion sizes, and Nestle: Keeping an Eye on Portion Sizes, which provides a photo of objects you can compare that equal a portion.

I'm not quite sure if you're trying to lose or gain weight...

But this tip should help either way... pack a lunch, if you can! If you're allowed to bring your own food to school, that would be a great way to know just what your eating. Helps with both calories and other nutrients (even though school food is supposed to be healthy, a lot of it is still "processed junk")

She is trying to gain. I do agree with packing your lunch, though - and remember there's no harm in eating somewhat processed items so long as they don't make up the largest percentage of your diet.

Oh, whoops... silly me, I thought I read "had TO drop".

I just thought of another thing... maybe you could also pack a couple little juice boxes (I like 100% juices...a bit more expensive, but healthier than high fructose junk), and have them between classes for a bit of extra calories. They don't need to be refridgerated, so will do fine in your bag.

Thanks for your suggestions. I should think about  taking my uch form home..

I wonder if anyone knows how many cups is 1 oz of elbow pasta? I need to know how many calories was my lunch but i measure it cups not in oz and I cant find nutrional info in cups..
