Thank you, i saved that link i will compare, Its not literally about honey, It was mainly about the calorie count as my Tablespoon was 15ml and the calories in 15 ml were 2400 lol, But i figured it was a bad entry , at my first month of it , So i am all over the place . Thank you for your help and insight .

Verify foods with labels against the label. Verify foods without labels against the USDA database. https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/search/list The checkmark system was a nice idea, but the MFP database is still user generated and there's nobody at MFP whose job it is to make sure users are entering or verifying correct into.…

Then how are we supposed to know whats right and whats not? Not everything is packaged that can come with a calorie count for us to compare, are we supposed to look on different websites and compare ? its too much work already to actually look for every single thing we put in our mouth. How can all this be done. -_-

ok , i will check other entries as well i just tend to trust the green checked ones because i thought they are confirmed. one tsp or tbsp is such a small amount i never felt the need to weigh it, i do have a scale but its not the one that run on batteries.
-
really? That's what i have been reading almost everywhere for forever .

250 lbs, 64 inch , and I am focusing on 1600 calories. I am female in my 30s with pcos disorder
-
I was not meaning to say " starving " as the literal starvation. I just meant what everyone refers to when weight loss "we should not starve ourselves because body will hold on to the weight " thing .

Hey , yes I know, flour is measured I only add water then , so I need to know calories of a 100 gram flour, so I can add and divide, but I am getting too many varying results for 100 grams of whole wheat flour
-
Oh didn't even think about that. Would day and time also matter?
-
Hey I'm not sure it would show that way for you? I m never that far below, sometimes just 200 or 300 below my goal , and I look for things in database and select from there, isn't that how we log ? I create my own recipes when I can't find in database, I will keep in mind to add individual ingredients from now
-
Umm yes , it's usually under the bed lol then you slide it out and weight. I have kids it's gonna be in pieces if I let it stay out in open
-
Hey , sorry what do you mean by that? English is not my first language.
-
Thank you so much , this lifted my spirits , sure thing i would know if i was eating that much lol, Hugs
-
20 lbs in first month?? Wow. And here I am " gaining" instead of loosing. But good thing is I did not get discouraged. I am still on track. So hopefully it will work sooner or later. Ty
-
Yes I was thinking the same thing to cut back on sodium. Ty for looking.
-
Yes I have kitchen scale . I am measuring through that.
-
I have set my diary to public . If that's going to help you guys point out the problems
-
It would make sense to me if I was not loosing and was still at my previous weight . It's the " gain " that's mind boggling.
-
You lost weight and then gained ? If that's the thing then it might be water weight . How much did you gain . A pound or 2 can be water weight but mine tells me I gained 10 pounds . Not normal .
-
Thanks everyone, I always thought it's better working out on an empty stomach early in the morning. But I will try all your suggestions.
-
Thank you everyone, so amazed to find such insightful replies, I am struggling with the logging calories, sometimes my cholesterol is over sometimes sugar. I do measure and weigh my food items so that's good. My 1600 calories are with the deficit. I will try my best to eat them all up .
