Not all of it, and not always.
But if its something higher in calories then I try to. For example I weighed my cheese this morning and I will probably measure my rice tonight with my dinner. But most stuff, no. I do count out things like crackers and stuff though.

I usually just estimate serving sizes, but I try to err on the side of caution.

I am, however, particularly fond of items which are already packaged by serving.
