Yea, I had two windows open on my desktop. Senior moment.

Its 1.5g. Its right on the package.

Count and log your calories every day and during the day as possible. And, don't summarize weekly, daily or monthly. Just try to hit your goal every day. Start every day anew without carry over or deficit from the day week or month before.

CICO is all that matters. Ditch all that macro nonsense.

This is exactly why actual counting is so important as opposed to estimating. The counting is a ritual that puts one in a frame of mind to stay focused on weight loss or maintenance. There is no good substitute for this action step unless one relies upon prayer, meditation or the like (which may all work well too). Logging…

Yea, I'm wrong about yogurt. I don't know anything about it.

These awful food suggestions just give me a headache. OP, you don't need protein bars or goofy recipes. Just find the 10 or so low calories things you like and put them on a plate until you have the right calorie count per meal. For me, its about 400 each plus 400 of snacks during the day. Leave out all the calorie dense…

Always weigh hamburger cooked and use the cooked weight calorie reference. The fat renders out at 9 calories per gram and you probably don't drink the rendered fat. Raw hamburger can be used for lasagna or chili (if not drained) or anywhere that dishes incorporate the entire product.

Not usually any room in the calorie count, but Five Guys is the best here.

McD chocolate shake is the best.

This is a sad legacy from the fat shaming that calorie counting is supposed to relieve. Eat what you want, when you want, log everything diligently and if you are in a calorie deficit, consistently and cumulatively, you will lose weight. If you aren't in a deficit, you don't want to lose weight (deep down) and should just…

Restaurants are tricky. Anyone who has worked in a kitchen without a "no variations" manual knows that everything tastes better and get get more customer satisfaction when butter and oil is added. I have seen fried rice made for a side dish for 4 diners with a cup of sesame oil (2000 calories for the oil alone). And, it is…

An egg muffin sandwich at 300 calories would be a vast improvement on a lot of the stuff people put up here as their breakfast.

We weigh meat cooked whenever possible because we don't usually drink the rendered fat which comes off at 9 calories per gram. The highest calorie food there is. So if you leave 12 grams of chicken fat in the pan (about a tablespoon), you aren't logging the 118 calories the fat contains. A half fryer will have about 560…

I weigh it before serving and weigh what goes in the garbage after. If it is just chicken breast I look for bonelss breast cooked calories. It is a whole chicken I look for whole chicken calories. Usually, it is a rotisserie chicken and that has good data so I just weight the bag before and after eating.Put all the bones…

Mayo has almost zero sugar.

How to track WW? Don't

Don't be afraid to toss food out. Food you don't need is wasted whether you eat it or put it in the garbage or compost. Egg yolks included. That feeling of having to make every morsel count is just extra baggage that hampers weight loss. I'd be more likely to save bacon fat than an egg yolk. Plus, egg yolks are very…

Nonsense. 100g of sugar is a half cup.

Dietary cholesterol from eggs is a myth. Having said that, try an egg plus the whites of two more eggs. Toss the extra yolks.

Your doctor is a quack or you have misunderstood him. 800 calories a day is not safe for a 290 pound person unless hospitalized. 13 pounds per month is more like bridal wedding day hysteria and has no place in an orderly food plan.

If you take each day, one at a time, the variations in intake will be smaller and you will be less likely to fail to meet your goals. Anyone who has even watched a brick wall being laid will know this is true. Weekly goals are an excuse to not moderate calorie intake on a daily basis.

Exercising solely to achieve calorie goals is bulimic. If exercise is incidental to calorie goals it is just part of the math.

I try not to stick my nose in this debate, but must tell you my lifelong friend and R. E. agent got the bypass and had an internal failure within a year and died a gruesome death. She was way overweight, but managing.

I kept away from intimate areas but, this shows it was photoshopped.

Oh, I did not realize she is famous. I must be getting daft. I thought that was the OP. Hahaha! Its still photoshopped.

OK, I will post a little of it when I get in front of my work console. If you have photoshop I can tell you all you have to do is access a suspected area (like her leg which looks broken) and blow it up until the worked on area pixelates and the rest of the image doesn't. But, I could see with the naked eye her knee on the…

The database is mostly crap. Ignore anything that says "1 slice" or "1 serving."

Its photoshopped. I could blow up the areas and show you but it is a waste of time.

^^Photoshoped.
