I can't eat all these calories

I find it incredibly hard to believe that 92 calories worth of Salmon FILLS YOU UP???? Are you weighing your proteins becuase 4oz of Salmon is roughly 200 calories so you are telling us that 2 oz of Salmon is filling!!!!!! I think you need to take an honest look at the foods you eat and your relationship with food. I have no problem hitting 1400 calories in a day and its never in a way I feel stuffed.
Are you looking at the serving size of this package as well? That is one of the key things of reading labels...even things that seem like they are packaged for a single serving are often marked as "servings per container: 2" or 3 or more. Always check this part of your label.0 -
No, it's a bigger size than that for sure, its like 2 dollar bills, but the packaging says its that many calories... and its a good quality company so i doubt theyd lie
You're probably looking at calories per serving of salmon (meaning calories per 2 oz). That's not the whole package. My guess is the entire salmon filet is closer to 6 oz, or aobut 300 calories according to your calorie count.
If that's how you've been counting your calories, my guess is you're eating a lot more than you think.0 -
I know how the OP feels. I was looking at my Net Calories report and I'm way behind. I am way more than satisfied.
The only time I seem to gt close is if I go out to eat and have a beer.0 -
Almonds & other healthy nuts are high in calories but good for you. Avocados are another one. Try foods like this to help you get there.0

Same here. I always find these threads hard to believe but it might be just me, who has been a big eater all my life...
I used to be a big eater but over the past year, I eat a lot less than what I used to. The main thing I gave up was snacking - chocolates, crisps, cakes etc. and combining it with exercise. I don't even remember how I used to eat before but glad I stopped.
Anyway I'm also increasing my calories and it has been taking a bit of toll on my body (feel lethargic after a meal). Gradually increase it will be my advice, instead of adding two snacks straight away, add one snack after a meal each day then add another the next week to boost your calories a bit. There's a lot of ideas I recently got peanut butter, crackers, jam, peanuts, fruit...0
