I try to stick to portion sizes however and daily servings of meat, fruit, vegetables, dairy, fat, etc. This seems to work for me, or at least it use to.
Unfortunately that's the only way to tell. Portion sizes are not the most exact science. You may be surprised that you're eating more calories than you thought. Maybe not on a permanent basis, but maybe for a day or two track your calories and see how many calories you are really consuming, and it could be that your method isn't working as well as you hoped and you may need to tweak your eating habits a bit more.
