Started weighing everything- reality check

Options
about a week ago I started weighing all my foods opposed to "guesstimating " that an apple had 100, or a sweet potato had 200. Holy crap was I shocked . When people on these forums say weigh everything , WEIGH EVERYTHING. Even things like lettuce have more calories them you'd think. I was probably eating around 4-500 more calories a day then I thought . After beginning to weight my food I have already began losing weight . This isn't really asking for advice but just saying in case you were. Like me and figured the foods are healthy so you don't need to weigh them.... Please , weigh your food lol

    Yes I just got a scale too. I also discovered that I was underestimating on beans and some meat. I love using my scale. Every meal feels like a science experiment. ☺
