ok so even ...as I already said...throw in an extra 300 als for what you say are not accurate numbers...im still under,,,some days by 1000 cals

Kinny...1 tablespoon is NOT 60 cals...40 grams is 150 cals DRY...1 tablespoon is 6 grams...so 1 tablespoon is 22.5...so im not sure where you are getting your info but this is right off the Quaker pkg ????????????

so...chg my goals to "active" dont log my exercise...ill still be under on suggested cals....what good is the site if you have to lie to it ??? Im confused

msharry...I changed my goals to "sed" which by no means am I...it still says im under...even adding and extra 200 calories if I had any errors....

frob...nothing you have posted is correct....your cals are WAY off...

frob....where are you getting these numbers ?????????????? 2 tablespoons dry is 12 grams...no where near 120 cals.....its like 45 at the most

I have a digital food scale and I use it...thx

tell ya what...take 1 tbl spoon dry...add a small amt of water..put in microwave for 1 minute...tell me what you get..I do this EVERYDAY .....your weights and numbers are WAY off

Also 1 tablespoon dry does NOT = 7 tablespoons wet.....not even close

frob...one tablespoon of dry is NOT 14g's it's 6 I just measured it

Newday....doesnt matter,,,thats what I put on it...

im not trying to loose more BUT the way I workout and eat it would seem I would loose more

I dont eat 2 tblspoons...I eat 1...today I had 2 because my wfe mixed another 1 in my bean burger...I hope we realize that adding 5 or 10 cals here and there is NOT going to make up the 1000 or more the site says im under everyday

if I take 1 tablespoon of DRY oatmeal...add a little water...put it in the microwave how is that any more cals then if I just ate the 1 tablespoon of dry oatmeal ??? Water has zero cals

I spray the salmon with zero cal Pam...the corn has VERY lite butter as I dont really like butter...its a medium size ear...the cheese IS low moisture park skim and its a dusting...wouldnt even fill a 1/2 teaspoon...and again....the oatmeal I eat IS 1 tablespoon measured !

male 5'8" maybe 5'7" tall weight about 140

frob...EXPLAIN the VAST difference in 1 tablespoon of oatmeal and adding NO calorie water to that same 1 tablespoon...how does the water only make a VAST diff ???

well...I eat 1 tablespoon dry...mixed with water ONLY and microwaved....and that just what I log...I NEVER drink soda...

I also wear a Garmin when biking and running and a hr monitor,,,it shows cals burned..I understand its not 100 % accurate but its pretty close

and janie...im NOT irratated

im on my feet almost ALL day...lots of walking and carrying boxes etc

ok I chgd it to sed...it still says with my exercise over 2k's a day...im NOT eating that much

again..LOOK at my diary...im leaving lots of uneaten cals so even i I set my activity level level lower it wouldnt matter....

humm where to start>>>I DO only eat a tablespoon of oatmeal just to have something in my gut before running...the cheese I put on my salad IS what I log...just a sprinkle>> I work a regular job NOT a desk job...and the pretzles..I DO have three different kinds I eat...so YES my logging IS accurate

And I do this 7 days a week and have NOT missed a day for over 4 yrs...so I need to lie to the site to get better numbers.....

,???? I run 6 to 8 miles a day every day...and on the days I dont run I do weights and bike 20 or more miles at a fast 19mph pace...why would I set it to sedentary ??????????

im under on my cals every day and im not loosing anymore....I have belly flab that doesnt go away....look at my diary

if all you want to do is loose weight and dont car about your cardio health or are too lazy or whatever then just cut cals and yo will loose weight...but for me ...I wanted to be healthier ...ALL over not just loose weight....so I added biking,running,weights into my better eating habits...I didnt really cut cals,,,in fact…

I burn 600 or more cals everyday,,,add that to the 2k this site says im supposed to eat ....I dont even come close to 2600 a day...yesterday I burned 1700 cals running then biking in the afternoon...it said I still had 2700 remaining

and if you loose weight with NO exercise you will NOT be in the same condition health wise as if you had exercised...
