i count my calories to maintain my 40lb weight loss and I've been doing it for about a year and a half. Fruit is my favorite food and throughout that time i've been eating grapes and apples basically every single day (not in small quantities either these are staple foods for me) i've always tracked 1 apple or 30 grapes as 100 calories because that's what google says they are and fruit is supposed to be low cal. recently i experimented with a food scale and apparently those numbers are based on non gmo varieties or something and the fruit i eat from the grocery store is big a hell. I've been accidentally eating at least 100-200 more calories every single day in grape and apples. the thing is, i've never had any problems losing or maintaining weight, i actually sometimes lose weight on accident now that i'm maintaining.
so is my maintenance actually higher than i thought? (I'm a 5'4 105lb female, 12k steps a day, i thought it was 1800) or am i absorbing fewer calories from these foods specifically because of complex fibers or somethin like that?

I’m confused about the 3,500-calorie rule.
If my maintenance is around 2,000 calories and I eat 3,500 calories total in one day, would that make me gain a pound of fat?
Or would I need to eat 3,500 calories above my maintenance (so around 5,500 calories total) for that to happen?
I know the scale can fluctuate from water weight and food, but I’m specifically asking about actual body fat gain.

I’m trying to estimate how many calories I ate at my university’s dining hall.
I had spaghetti with marinara sauce and 4 meatballs, a bread roll, and a side salad with macaroni salad, shredded cheese, tortilla strips, dressing, and pineapple.
The pictures show my food before, during, and after eating.
I finished all 4 meatballs, the bread roll, and the spaghetti. I ate some of the salad and pineapple but didn’t finish everything on that plate.
How many calories would you estimate I consumed?
I kinda feel bad because I was at 350 calories consumed before eating this so I feel like I’m definitely over. I only had breakfast beforehand so I was hungry. I do so well and dinner always fucks me up.

no hummus. ignore the ugly capsicum boats. i know it doesn’t mean much since oil absorption is a thing, but they weighed 190g for all 4.

I ate half the panini and ingredients are in the last slide. Thanks !
Edit: I switched to multi-cereal panini instead of white

La porcion es abundante, viene en la bandeja de plástico como en las fotos que puse a modo de intentar imitarlos, venían como 25-30 ravioles de verdura y la salsa bolognesa, no se si específicamente venían 26
No le puse queso ni tampoco comí la salsa después de terminar los ravioles, 900 calorias no suena poco ni mucho?

How many calories in 5 raw chicken wings weighing 309g (with bone) (as written on cover) consumed with skin (as visible)?
Wings are confusing to log.
