I don't know about you, but I get confused with how much of what is what when it comes to serving sizes. I can read the labels just fine, but when it comes to visualizing how much 3 ounces of fish is, I have a hard time doing it.

Luckily MealsMatter.org has come up with this handy dandy way to visualize portion sizes:

• Woman's fist or baseball - a serving of vegetables or fruit is about the size of your fist
• A rounded handful - about one half cup cooked or raw veggies or cut fruit, a piece of fruit, or ½ cup of cooked rice or pasta - this is a good measure for a snack serving, such as chips or pretzels
• Deck of cards - a serving of meat, fish or poultry or the palm of your hand (don't count your fingers!) - for example, one chicken breast, 1/4 pound hamburger patty or a medium pork chop
• Golf ball or large egg - one quarter cup of dried fruit or nuts
• Tennis ball - about one half cup of ice cream
• Computer mouse - about the size of a small baked potato
• Compact disc - about the size of one serving of pancake or small waffle
• Thumb tip - about one teaspoon of peanut butter
• Six dice - a serving of cheese
• Check book - a serving of fish (approximately 3 oz.)
