thank you for your replies, I'm not deep frying them, just baking, not gonna add oil or any special sauce. That's why I am looking for the calories with wings weighted with the bone in, because if I just add a restaurant entry I'll be really be logging way more calories than I consumed

thanks everyone, I hope these low calorie counting are correct, I'm freaking out because I saw 1kg of chicken thighs are almost 2800kcals and didn't want to log in 2300kcals when in reality it'd be 500kcals more than that

thank you for replying, I saw that entry but the calorie content seemed so low, I thought it meant "meat and skin consumed" but weighted including the bone

Carb heavy foods, I have hypothyroidism and get bloated really easily (like, rings can't fit into my fingers anymore), if I eat a normal plate of pasta I get so bloated, which is a pity since I usually don't get bloated with sweets, just with carb dense foods like pasta or lasagna or bread, and I have no sweet cravings…

Due to stress and depression, I've eaten like crap the whole week, too many cookies, too much icecream, too much frozen meals. I'm disappointed in myself, but I'll be back on track now, hopefully... Didn't log any of my splurges also :sad:

I've lost 132lbs so far with a non clean diet. I eat whatever I want, whenever I want as long as I meet my caloric goal :bigsmile:

I'll be quoting this because I'm also curious about the effects of eating so many calories a day of low nutrition food :O

just weighted in and lost more weight, this weekly stuff really works lol!!

This doesn't make any sense. I'm not starving myself, no one who does weekly is starving themselves.

bumping

That's what I do, on monday I eat whatever I want, icecream, pringles, cookies... you name it, I'll have it haha

some people eat a lot and compensate over the week, some people like you like to just vary very little, binging is when you don't plan something in advance, and I plan every meal I have, I don't just compulsively binge. What I also want to know is if varying so much is OK, if eating 3600 calories in a day and compensating…

no one is questioning that, this topic is for people discuss and tell their experience :flowerforyou:

Thank you for the reply, I'm in this weightloss journey for almost 3 years now, but this weekly goal for me is still very new, I was restricting my body so much that it's kinda scary to let go a bit!

I'm worried about eating icecream every week D:

Would it be healthy to splurge on monday, eat icecream, chips, cookies etc then eat healthy the rest of the week? I'm not sure if what I'm doing is OK :/

Thanks, I usually eat some unhealthy food on monday, but only healthy fresh unprocessed stuff the rest of the week. I can eat like chips and nachos or even 960g of icecream on monday, so I'm not sure If I'm digging my own grave with that...

Is eating a lot of calories then compensating on the other days healthy?

I think the bigger picture will always more make sense than the small details, I got seriously frustrated focusing on daily calories, and in the end what matters is the weekly deficit, so why not focus on it? It's bad for people who like to eat a lot everyday, but in my case I don't mind having to fast one day or two days…

It's even weird being able to eat 4600 calories on monday and still lose weight haha

bumping!

bump for more insight!

how many calories do you eat weekly?

I personally find that focusing on weekly calories will allow me to eat more and feel better in general, I usually eat around 3600 to 4200kcals on monday and eat less the rest of the week, every monday morning I'm feeling so light and wonderful, it's amazing so far, I'm scared this is going to backfire because it seems too…

I actually do, it's these ones http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pR_1V1QWKYA this one just for fun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EYVepDBAC0

I get that, but I think this weekly calorie stuff is wonderful, I mean, I ate a whole pizza and still lost weight haha

Anyone else have a story to share? I'm very interested, seems like a method I could take for my whole life:drinker:

That is absolutely wonderful to hear!! How many times do you weight yourself/when?? I've been confused and I try not to weight after the high caloric days haha

Yay! How long have you been doing this for?
