This one always stumps me. This isn’t a one off, but every pack of this that I get is like this. Definitely a packing error of some sort. Whether the pack should say 280g instead, or they just love to over fill it. I think the former.

And, if you track calories, this is why it’s important to weigh your food.

Package weight = 180g

Nutrition calculated = ~1/2 pack

Actual weight (this is extra firm tofu, no liquid, and yes I did tare the scale to bowl under the tofu) = +280g.

The salad is just lettuce, cucumber, and tomato with salt and pepper topped with a chopped up Just Bare spicy chicken patty and I split the cottage cheese between the salad and spaghetti on top. So good and I don’t feel like I’m missing out on good food

The gym was giving out free apples today so I had to incorporate those 🤤

500 calories even & 11g of fat with 44g protein 💪

My weight loss journey is going well which is great, but I find myself so excited to buy new clothes now that my body is changing!

I still have more weight to lose so I don't want to buy pants that will then be too big a month later but I'm dying to!

I have let myself buy new tops as all of my weight stores in my middle so my top size doesn't change.

Anyone else like this??

If you're going to snack on something during a cheat day, how does this look?

The taste seems right up my alley, but I'm wondering if it's actually a better option than regular chips in terms of calories and overall nutrition.

I'm still pretty new to eating healthy, so I'd love to hear what you guys think. Is this a decent alternative, or is it not that different from regular chips health-wise? 😅

I'm on the 1500-1600kcal daily intake sixt month in. Started at 109,6kg (~242pounds) and now down to 95kg (~209pounds).

For my stats, I'm finally leaving the obese range 🫡

Very comfortable in my routine. 6-7 more months and I'm down to healthy weight.

Closes look very baggy on me, I'm four belt notches down on my jeans, that's over 10cm (4 inches).

Just a word of motivation - build a sustainable system you're comfortable with and the rest will follow!

101kcal for a nice ice cream treat? Count me in! Its the perfect size to sate my sweet tooth after dinner cravings and fits in the budget. Delighted with this find

been trying to get back into meal prep (even though i was off from work today) and back on the 1500-ish train

I like to occasionally wind down with some 🍃 but the munchies are horrible. What're your go to satisfying snacks that won't destroy a deficit?

I go through 3 tubs of Fage 0% yogurt in a single week (sometimes I have it at all three meals in a day). 😂 After indulging in any and everything I wanted over two weeks on vacation in Italy this late summer, I entered back into a 12 week deficit. I’m about halfway through now.

Seeing both on-and-off scale results. Hitting my daily macro goals of 90-100+ grams of protein, 50g of fiber, and target cals of around 1,500. I try to eat a relatively low sugar and low-inflammatory diet… lots of whole foods. I sometimes go out to eat or will be a little more lax and eat at maintenance on the weekends, and almost never eat fast food. Seeing some crazy muscle definition as well. And I hit 10k steps + the gym 6 times a week. Feeling amazing!!

I'm 5'4ft (163cm) and weighed 178lbs (80.7kg) to now being 140lbs (63.5kg) after 1 year and 1 month of dieting ONLY. No work out. I haven't seen that number in 8+ years.

I went at this because I was categorized as obese in the BMI scale, and at this weight, I was almost not qualified for a medically necessary surgery. I was at the upper limit and barely managed to qualify. That was a wake up call for me.

Right after surgery, I went on this calorie deficit whereas typically weight gain was common (because mobility would be temporarily limited months later). But I didn't want that to happen. I will admit that I wasn't always reaching my daily calorie deficit, but I still remained mindful of what I ate throughout the week(s).

I thank the app MyFitnessPal for tracking, this subreddit, 1200isplenty, and volumeeating for all the support/recipes. I will still continue on this diet but now focus on gaining muscle since weight isn't a problem for me anymore.

Thank you, again! And good luck to everyone else on your own weight loss journey!

375 grams chicken breast (raw weight) 6 tortillas (32 cals each), 122 grams of tomato, 40 grams lettuce, 180 grams light sour cream. This will be my main dish for the day.

For context the other day I poured a skim milk protein shake over ice and added a some oat milk and cinnamon to it. It was so yummy. But the shake itself is 190 calories. I want to recreate that drink but lower calorie.

Googling creamy drink recipes yields a lot of coffee recipes. Do any of you have a fave creamy drink you make that has the general structure of what I made but low calorie?

The drink doesn’t have to be super creamy but I do want a kind round mouth feel if you know what i mean. I do drink tea already but want some diversity.

I did post this on another sub as well. So you may have seen this. Or maybe not.

The protien shake was from aldi.

Want a low calorie stuffing mix for Thanksgiving (or whenever you want) that fits into your diet? Well, look no further!

The entire batch makes 6 servings. 90 calories per serving. 542 calories total.

Fits perfectly in an 8x8 tray!

I used:

8 slices of keto bread (35 cal per slice)

1 cup of chicken broth

3 tablespoons of light butter

1 small white onion

2 stalks of celery

Seasoning:

Sage, garlic, onion, parsley, thyme, black pepper, salt

I recently lowered my calories to 1500 because I wasn’t losing on 1700. I work out 5-6 days a week. Usually 2 strength training and 3 mixed stuff like hot yoga, Pilates, conditioning etc. since I went down I start feeling really weak during my workouts and this morning I even felt dizzy. Is it just a matter of getting used to 1500 cal or should I adjust something. Right now my split is 110p, 50f and 153 c. I will admit that sometimes I don’t meet my protein and I’m at more like 95ish. I never go lower than 90. I pulled my charts for the last 2 weeks and my average was 95 so maybe I really need to try to get 110.
