Tracking rice?
Hi, I'm getting a bit confused with how to track my basmati rice e.g weigh cooked or uncooked? The packet says '100g (hob cooked) kcal 127' and it states 1 portion is 70g. I weighed 70g dry for myself and tracked it as 89kcal like it said above, but should I have weighed out a 70g portion after it was cooked

Re: Remaining Calories math
The remaining calories in a day does not equate to the remaining carbs+fats+Proteins. When I multiply remaining carbs*4+fats*9+proteins*4 the number exceeds the daily remaining calories. Any pointers on why the math is not adding up?

Returning after loss of self-discipline
I am back after about 4 or 5 years on a slightly different profile. Back then, I went from 108kg to 79kg, back to 85kg in about 18 months. I kept stable for a few years. I migrated from South Africa to Poland just prior to covid. I kept a daily weight journal and this morning's weigh-in was too high for my liking. I…

Nervous About Increased Calorie Budget
Since October 2021, I've lost nearly 25 pounds. Two of those pounds were lost in the last week. I read here a lot and I suspect I'm not eating enough even though I don't ever feel starved. I only have 15ish pounds to go, so this morning, I upped my calories by 100 because I'd rather be losing between 1/2 and 3/4 of a pound…

Weekly Adjustable Calorie Goal
I saw in Lose It app that they allow for users to adjust their daily calorie allowance. Eat less on some days and more on others, for example have less on weekdays and a bit more on weekends. This also could be used for planning for a meal out or a party and would be very useful feature, I think. Sometimes, when you go…

Time to Lose the COVID-19(lbs)
Or is it 30?!? :o Prior to COVID hitting the U.S., I was working out with a personal trainer twice a week, teaching yoga class one evening a week, and had a pretty healthy nutrition plan.
