Almost everything you eat in a package (including the ingredients you cook with) will list a serving size in grams... once you weight it, just do the math. So if 100g = 100 cals, and you ate 125g, you had 125 cals. Otherwise, you can look up basic things like raw chicken breast on many sites - just google to find one you like... Weigh you powders and stuff too - one level "scoop" isn't always the same grams as listed on the label.
