Calorie Counting

Postby Spontaneo » 30 Jan 2024, 00:15

I am curious.

Do you count calories?

I do.

I figure out my food diary almost every day the day before. I know way ahead of what my calories are going to be for the day.

I have yet to go over 1, 200 calories each day since January 1st.

No, I don't. I just try to eat a varied diet with plenty of protein, fruit and vegetables.

No, I don't, I only care about eating healthy and having enough protein a day, as long as you avoid processed, fast food, alcohol, sodas and sugar you will be in the good track.

I understand. However, if I do not count calories, the calories get astronomical.

I used to but that's like my highway to develop an eating disorder.
Thankfully I manage to stay fit just by listening to my body, it helps I feel sick whenever I eat too much sugar. Those are the easiest calories to ingest. :D

I don't count my calories intake. I just eat a well balanced diet in moderation. Healthy lifestyle is always my goal in life to age gracefully and happy.

Don't beat yourself up about it. That's bound to happen sometimes.

Hello!

Yes, I still count calories with www.myfitnesspal.com

I still allow myself 1, 200 calories every day.

However, instead of buying canisters of Slim Fast, I prepare my own homemade protein smoothies. Simply blend eggs, peanut butter, milk or water. For a little taste, I include some jelly also or zero-calorie sweetener or something of your choice. I saw a woman online including vanilla wafers blended in her smoothies. So, even cookies are good!

I logged in my food diary for today last night, yet probably am not going to consume all of the food. This is good. Usually, I prepare myself for the day's food but do not end up consuming all of the food.

I don't count it but I try eat more healthy food or if I eat carbons then concentrate to eat less food.

What is difficult is when I am going on errands and need to pack a lunch. I usually take sandwiches.
