As a restaurant manager portioning used to be a very important part of my day. Not everyone knows what an ounce or a pound look like visually and even so we all need refreshers once in a while. While training employees and taking food inventories we frequently used quick weigh-ins throughout a shift to ensure proper portioning. likewise, I need to continue this process even though I'm no longer in the food industry
One of my biggest obstacles in my weight loss adventure has been portion sizes. I can go hours or most of the day without eating, but once I start I don't seem to know when to stop. That and when I do eat I
have a skewed idea of what the portion sizes are. This is something I have been working very hard on
with my Trainer Erica. After much thought and discussion as to what would possibly help me, we decided
I should give a food scale a try. Ozeri was the perfect place to find myself a high quality scale.
"Ozeri is a specialty manufacturer of digital lifestyle products for the modern home." I decided on the Ozeri Precision Pro Digital Kitchen Scale which has an over sized stainless steel weighing platform. This is made with a fingerprint resistant coating. The LCD screen can display weights in pounds, ounces,
grams, fluid ounces, or milliliters and can accurately weigh up to 11 pounds.
I love this scale since not only does it easily wipe clean but It is very compact. I can store this with my cook books, in a drawer, or on the counter top for quick access (without taking up any additional room). Being able to quickly and accurately measure out my food has helped me keep an accurate food log as well as giving me a better visual of what a portion should look like.
Cost: $18.95Available to purchase: Amazon
Recommendation: This is a great purchase at this price for something so nice and definitely a company worth checking out other products from as they are high quality (compared to what I've seen elsewhere). This would make a great gift for the kitchen chef or the conscientious friend trying to lose some weight.
