Shídaddy :

Once I started being brutally honest about my calories I started losing weight. Most people just aren’t honest with themselves

No one :

Wrong it’s because I’m not tracking my calories from alcohol

Sasscuba :

Food scale and app.... calorie deficit I've gone from 313 to 199 in 16 months♥️

Sballard :

A toddler eats more than 1200 cal a day. That’s the problem.

wildhog666 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦n :

people also forget sauces

madison register :

this is stressing me out it’s so overwhelming omg

Samii131332 :

Turn off burned calories on my fitness pal! This is where I see a lot of people going wrong

Priscilla Gerona :

Totally, the measusing cups vs real food weight its always diferent.

Rick James :

The bag of potatoes in my kitchen- “1 potato 128g =1 serving” me weighing the potatoes at 260g. Weigh your food

Kels :

I’ve struggled for years with weight loss. I’ve lost 20 pounds by weighing my food! Also avoiding fast food as much as possible. Made a huge difference.

Rosie Palm :

that's why I'm on a slightly higher deficit to make up for me just eyeballing my food portions lol! I've lost 10 inches in 3 months so apparently it's working

Allie Fincher :

You’re stressing me out

❌🙏🙌🏼🏖️Elena :

Finally, someone that is 100% on point.

bucki_83 :

If you have written down it’s not on lap top… next

sheldonwayman :

Thought this was just common sense

no :

the first 1 is so true i realized that once i got a scale

user1304808490106 :

I use the Lose It app, an app is almost necessary for tracking, especially in the beginning.

user13541080718145 :

The first time anybody has ever put peanut butter on a scale to confirm that they’re actually having a tablespoon is a huge wake up call

sakura718649 :

I’m not doing any of these. I’m eating between 1000-1400 calories a day, 100g protein, going to 2 one hour hot yoga classes and walking 25-33k steps per day. scale is going down but not as fast as it should be given my energy expenditure. I’m 5 5 136 pounds, why is the scale not

rm530622 :

During my weight loss journey I paid more attention to the tape measure and how my clothes fit than the scale. The scale can be unforgiving and discouraging.

El Fuego :

The worst offender has got to be peanut butter and finding out that “spoon full” is probably closer to 1.5-2 servings!

./user/home/mr_k :

- People will be amazed how small 80g of rice or pasta (320cal) are, without measure most are probably eating closer to 150-200g (600-800cal) - Oils, a tablespoon is 100cal - Crisps (chips) are a killer, I was shocked to see the cheese puffs I bought were 650cal for a 100g bag! - Been guilty of not including the snacks. Even 2 rounds of bread 2x100cal.

boggy :

I'm doing 1300 a day and I'm losing about 12 ounces a day

SDP :

Question - you said eating out 1 or 2 times a week is fine but how do you track those meals?
