@dmt4641 I eat "Breakfast" at 9 AM (When I come to work) and then the first half of my lunch at 11, and the second half at around 2. I don't mind moving things around but it'll only mean I'll have less for later. I have amended the stuff I add to my meals since this post, but to be honest have not gotten to implement this…

It calculates only cardio in the app and only on certain exercise other people have input? Not sure.... I do more strength stuff than cardio But thanks for the input
-
Okay, thanks everyone I've done some changes to my meals and gonna see how that's gonna work out for the next couple of days If it works I can start thinking of seasoning and such =) Thanks a lot
-
Thanks haha... Feeling kinda stupid right now...

How can anybody calculate the amount of oil they get from cooking per 1 meal when cooking in bulk? I use roughly 2.5 tablespoons of olive oil for the chicken and the same amount for rice..... But I cook 480 grams of chicken that turns to roughly 450 in the end and I take 140 per 1 meal.... Same goes to rice.... 2.t…

Okay. First of all I would like to thank every one of you who have taken their time to review this post and comment and even stick through and keep on discussing this to help me along I will take your advice on the current diary I have built and see how I can adjust it to fit better. I am not entirely sure how robust this…

How much rice/ pasta do you eat a day? Before the butter it was 80 grams of avocado and the sole reason was to add up the fat after I've already reached 1400-1500 calories with rice and chicken and oats.... I needed something wit lots of fat and almost nothing else. (Was 150 grams rice at lunch and 170 at dinner)
-
What I am not asking is what mental state I need to enjoy my food
-
Fair enough What would you suggest dropping? And what are the potential substitutes? Veggies and that are great abstraction.... But I would like specifics
-
Yea I agree I know I need to re-calibrate things...that's why I am on this forum. I believe I've made my diary public now... Will be happy for feedback
-
I've been to the army so being hungry is not too bad unless it's for 6 days straight.... I appreciate the concern, really.... I am new to this thing and the app tells me that my me is already way over the 1600 quota.... Problem is, that leaves me hungry hence I dropped in here.... If I have to drop the rice so be it....…

No offense taken, just trying to keep you from getting offended I suppose xD It's weird... Moving on
-
You don't have to participate if you get agitated by my responses =\ What works for you is great for you.... I am trying to figure out what works for me
-
I am willing to change what I am doing. I simply seek to find the logic behind things and scrutinize responses.... I don't wanna jump on any given advice without thinking it through first and considering if it works for me or not. Also it seems like a big emphasis of people's response here was about taste and seasoning at…
-
That makes sense, but I would rather keep the 500 cal deficits in numbers because a lot of things about this seem to be guesstimation... I guess I should indeed consider more veg and fruit as snacks between meals as many here have pointed out
-
At the age of 30 I am pretty sure I know how I feel about hunger and why
-
Is it going to fill me up? I dunno.... Also not sure how to log the oil.... Rice is fine but chicken loses fluid during cooking and a lot of the oil is drained with that fluid
-
~Sigh.... The yummi bit is irrelevant right now.... It is just that I feel hungry. I don't know an effective way to estimate my calorie loss when at the gym yet.... The fitness app the dude who made my training gave me says that it's around 300 calories a day so I can estimate that. I am not sure what loss rate I chose,…

Re-food preparation: Fry rice in olive oil until hot and add boiling water. Wait until cooked Chicken - cut to chunks and off into the oven with some oil so it doesn't burn.... I sometimes season it with balsamic vinegar, garlic, and Dijon mustard For now I am just trying to figure out what to eat..... Seasoning is less…
-
Easy to make in bulk and store in a shared fridge.... I don't mind the boringness just the feeling of hunger.... Almond butter is something I have not tried yet, but I am 100% sure it's gonna be better than raw avocado
-
Don't fancy eating oil for the sake of it.... Is like eating a stick of butter....
-
Re-rice: Easy to make as my current shared flat is not very fit for elaborate dishes
-
Have a better substitute to add fat? Not avocado tho as it's terrible
-
The stuff I posted is already at 1600 calories... Adding veg and fruit will mean I have to reduce things I eat to get full even more...
-
Make 1m 77 83kg 31 this may Sit in the office and at home. Go to the gym for almost 2 hours 5 days a week No medical issues Have a scale at home for food Tell me how to open the diary please (but so far I use it for reference as I am trying to work it out)
-
Okay so I'll post it here for clarity: Oats 27 grams Semi skimmed milk 180 ml Cooked long grain Rice 160 grams Chicken breast 140 grams 2 large eggs 30 grams almond butter Cooked long grain rice 150 grams Chicken breast 140 grams 2 large eggs 30 grams almond butter These 3 meals add up to 1590ish calories... Almost 1600…
-
Using this very app and the majority of calories come from rice so I have to limit it the most (it also adds an orange tooltip when I add fruits that the goal is to eat 149 grams of carbs a day....) That's also why I post here to ask....
-
It is more I just have not included the entire thing as I don't like to type on phone... Oats with milk 4 eggs Total 300 grams of cooked rice 280 grams of chicken 60 grams of almond butter I have not included exercise yet as I am still trying to figure out a good way to calculate calories list but that'll be easy to…
-
Again delicious and varied is a none issue for me.... I did add fat (tried avocado but that was disgusting) with almond butter (didn't feel like adding the entire recepie).... But again with a target of roughly 149 grams of carbs a day it leaves super small portions of food.... Which means I get hungry roughly an hour…
-
Thanks for the responses, but the thing was never about seasoning. My problem is that having 150 grams of rice and 150 grams of chicken with the odd single broccoli or something twice a day leaves me very hungry for the majority of the day =\
