Some things to keep in mind when you add to database
Dear fellow pals, As I am a physicist (or we can generally say a STEM person), I am somewhat shocked by some cases of wrong data I observed. Some mistakes come from conversions and others come from completely neglecting the units we see when we search for something. First of all, I understand that not everyone is an…

Picnic
The community I live in is hosting a picnic tomorrow. I've decided to go and signed up to bring cucumber salad. They're grilling hot dogs and hamburgers, and serving typical sides. Someone signed up to bring fruit. I've been thinking I'll make a fruit salad. I figured I could bring those and at least I could get something…

Sweet tooth - pre diabetic
Hey 👋🏻 My Dad has been told he’s pre diabetic and is now starting to diet to get healthier, but he’s always had a sweet tooth, especially in the evenings. Not that I’m asking people to divulge if they are themselves diabetic, I’m just curious as to what low sugar alternatives people go for when the sweet tooth kicks in…

TDEE or IIFYM?
Hello! I'm trying to figure out where to start calorie wise, can i have a hand from you guys who've succesfully lost weight? I have 100lbs+ to lose. I've decided that I'm going to eat a meditteranean type diet, which is how i enjoy eating anyway. But i am going to weigh everything and cook from scratch as much as possible.…

Question about bread
So I compared two different raisin breads from two local bakeshops (Danes Bakeshop and Valley Bread, im from the Philippines). The one from Danes says that 2 slices would equal 90 calories, while the one from Valley Breads says that a single slice would equal 280 calories. Is it even possible that a single slice of white…

Sugar-free instant pudding+almond milk
The box of sugar free jello instant pudding says that it won't set up with soy milk. So I tried making it with almond milk tonight and found the same holds true. My dessert was like a thick chocolate soup. Tasty, but I was really wanting pudding and need to keep it very low-cal. Has anyone found a work-around for this?…

Vegetarian friendly alternatives to sandwinches.i
Hey lovely peeps. I'm on 1280 calories a day. I can manage that if i exercise (walk/steps, cycle, swim when lockdown ends etc), but I'd rather not HAVE to rely on those since I'm aware I'm better off not eating *all* my exercise calories. What's everyone's go-to lunches that are filling and around 350 calories? TIA. 😋

New to macro tracking & early effects
Good afternoon - I’m new to macro tracking and wondering about some early affects. I’ve typically eaten a pretty clean diet, but probably lower in carb and higher in fat. I’m 37 years old and 147lbs, 5’7. I’m hoping to tone up a bit more and perhaps lose 5-7 lbs. My early observations are a slight increase in weight (just…

Intermittent fasting

Problem was the minute i relinquished 100% control i gained the weight back. Now 2 kids later i was almost at my highest weight. I've started releasing weight again but this time I've started…

The dreaded plateau
After two glorious weeks in which I lost a lot of weight by eating whatever I felt like as long it was within 1,200 calories, my weight has stubbornly refused to go down at all in a third week. (And yes, I am weighing and logging religiously!) I know I'm eating 1,200 calories and I have a typical deficit of c. 800 calories…

Oven dish fish. Guess the calories
A local fish shop gave me this dish as a add-on short before they closed for the day a while ago. Shops generally don't have calorie information, and I never really go there. The dish: https://imgur.com/a/EuJooMu The dish is currently 420gr without the bowl, but frozen solid. From what I can see there's a thin layer of…

drinking lots of water over diet soda
I read a lot that you should be drinking lots of water daily, say 2 litres plus. I admit to a diet fizzy juice addiction. While there are debatable cons to drinking diet soda which I'm aware of, what are the benefits of drinking an equal amount of plain water? I'm guessing just drinking plenty of liquids fills you up,…
