just got a food scale

used it tonight the first time and it already has helped. one thing i dont like though is the feeling i may become obsessive with it. i already pre measured certain foods for breakfast and lunch. but going by the label seems misleading from what i got tonight. example...

1/2 cup (39 grams) of oatmeal is 140cal.

using my 1/2 measuring cup i got between 51 and 59 grams. if i were to just say 55 grams all the for each prepackaged breakfast i make will it really matter? i know a few cals will not be kept track of but how crazy should i really get?

aside from this dilemma i think the thing is great and holds a lot of promise for me to get in the best shape ive been in a long time.
