Fair enough. I’d be surprised if it amounted to more than 800 calories a day or even 200 but will give it a whirl and go from there. Obviously I have the scales already as they sit on the side so I can use them as needed

and even if the banana I ate was actually 15 more calories than the small one I choose surely I’m not consuming 800 extra calories a day to take me to 2000 where is perhaps what I would eat to maintain?

I’m not sure I follow. I use the barcode scanner to scan the packet. For example fish sticks today. Then I choose how many I had. Pasta I find the food from the list and it told Me how many calories were in 100g so I weighed out 100g worth and ate it Ham sliced are because I take one slice and on the pack it says 39…

Yeah sometimes I cook the family a meal then I end up having a couple of tablespoons of it whilst it’s cooking so guess at the meat/beans/tomato/sauce etc. I would choose a 0.2tin of beans for that one!! Perhaps I need to avoid cooking dinners like that for me so ensure calories are easier to check and stop picking at…
-
Some of the amounts like a tenth of a tin of beans are because I’ve made a meal for the whole family with lots left to freeze and I’ve guessed as I’ve had a fraction of the meal once made

No I am weighing!! Definitely not guessing! I count it all.
