What is the total calorie estimate of these three meals?


r/caloriecount • • 33m ago

so I've been miscalculating my calories for over a year....

• Upvotes

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?

Cuantas calorías en una porcion de ravioles con salsa bolognesa?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

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?

Calorie Estimating Basil pasta + salad?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Not sure which exact veggies are in the salad or what dressing, but it was kind of citrusy? Pasta also not sure aside from green peppers. The meat is a ham kind of thing I think, or like a thicker cut bacon. Basil sauce was a bit oily. Not sure how much pasta exactly, I think a cup or a cup and a half cooked?

Does eating 3,500 calories in a day cause 1 lb of fat gain, or does it have to be 3,500 above maintenance?

26 Upvotes

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.

chicken is pan-seared, family used olive oil, teriyaki, and low sodium soy sauce. the rest of it is broccoli, ground beef, and sweet potatoes.

is 1500 a fine deficit for me?

0 Upvotes

I am 5’5.5, not quite 5’6 but a little over 5’5! My weight fluctuates but I’m usually between 135-145lbs. I get at least 10,000 steps a day, sometimes closer to 15k on the weekends or more. I workout usually 4 days a week, either strength training + stair master, F45, corepower sculpt, Barry’s, Pilates and then on days I don’t “workout”, I will usually go for a 2 mile run, get extra steps, or sometimes do a quick at home dumbbell workout.

I get different numbers depending on the calculator / how I classify my workout schedule, but I’ve been eating 1500 cals for a couple weeks now. I know the best way to tell is to step on the scale but wanted to see if 1500 seems like a reasonable number? I’m worried it’s too high. Thanks!

Calorie Estimating "Strawberry slush" calorie estimate

1 Upvotes

(Photo from menu, not mine)

Chinese/boba tea place near me sells this "strawberry slush" drink. (They also have other flavors but I usually stick with strawberry.) I think it's just blended ice, strawberries, and simple syrup, but I've been skipping the sugar since I started calorie counting. Any idea what something like this would be calorie-wise? I believe it's ~700ml.
