The few foods I eat that come with portion sizes, such as cottage cheese, I really seem to eat just one portion. Generally, I try to eat enough so that I don't have to eat again for 4-5 hours.

I've read that it's part of managing not just weight loss but IBS. @Robin, yeah, I really do, too. I’ve read that it’s part of managing not just weight loss but IBS.

I know this doesn't work for everyone though. I don’t really measure portions, but instead judge by how full I feel. I know this doesn’t work for everyone though.

Over time I can eyeball it pretty accurately now - but I did measure things for a while! Great job on the continuing to work out and on the calories. 1600 seems reasonable to me.

Instead of eating them straight out of the box, I'd look at the serving size and put them on a <i>small</i> plate to make it look like a large(r) serving. Visuals can be everything! ;-) P.S. – I also started eating wheat or multi-grain crackers.
