I live alone so I tend to buy a larger pack of meat/chicken and then cook a batch of food - eat one portion straight away, second portion for next day or one day later then freeze the remainder in plastic 'take away' containers. I weigh it all raw and divide the total by the number of containers to give a meal calorie…

I would feel more motivated if it said 'You will reach your target weight on x date!' even if it was inaccurate

As an ex chef I bone out the legs (off the carcase) then roll them and stuff them. Also giblets for gravy then bones for soup - makes it go a long way B)

I have substituted a different boiled pork and now it has zero transfers. The database must have been wrong. Many thanks for the response.

I have copied down the results from MFP - as shown but cannot understand how they have reached their result - clearly 3g cannot suddenly change to 18 unless I am misreading the info. Maybe they mean 18mg of trans fat? It may be just me but I am an ANALytical type.

I went to the doctor and was told that I have a twenty plus percent chance of dying of stroke or heart attack in next ten years. She had my old higher weight down and after adjustment it appears that if I lose some more weight I will live longer. Intestingly I will increase my longevity more by losing the weight than…
