You’re logging everything. You’re tracking your meals. You’re even skipping the free bread basket. But the scale won’t budge. Sound familiar?

You might be making the most common mistake in calorie tracking — and not even realize it.

Spoiler: It’s not about eating too much. It’s about underestimating portions.

In this post, we’ll break down why portion distortion is the #1 reason people fail to lose fat (even when tracking)

🔦 The #1 Mistake: Underestimating Portion Sizes

Most people think they’re eating 1 tablespoon of peanut butter. Reality? It’s closer to 2.5.

Think you had a cup of pasta? Measure it — it was probably double that.

These small misjudgments can add up to 300–500 extra calories per day, enough to stall or reverse progress.

🤯 Why It Happens (Even to Smart, Health-Conscious People)

• We eyeball instead of measuring
• Restaurants serve oversized portions
• Packaging is misleading (a “bowl” is really 2 servings)
• We forget to log oils, sauces, or bites between meals

It’s not about willpower. It’s about awareness.

🤝 Real-World Examples

🍽️ Example A: Homemade Bowl

What you think:

• ½ cup cooked rice, 3 oz chicken, light sauce

Reality (scanned/photo logged):

• 1 cup rice, 5 oz chicken, 2 tbsp sauce
• 200+ calorie difference

🥜 Example B: Snack Time

What you log:

• “1 handful trail mix”

Actual:

• 2 handfuls + a few bites while cooking
• Over 300 calories, mostly from fat/sugar

NutriSnap helps you capture this by logging visually and precisely.
