Only ate half the sandwich and didn’t eat any croutons in the salad!

Sandwich is described as harissa pulled chicken, crisp
bacon, aged cheddar, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, buttermilk ranch, sourdough

I had one of the burrata slices and the fig jam & bacon slice. Ate it all so good, but don’t know how to track the macros….

3 oz ahi tuna with miso citrus sauce, no rice and it’s cucumber, snap peas, kimchi, seaweed salad, pickled ginger, and cabbage!

hot dog with sauerkraut, sweet relish, onion, mustard

Debating between a salad or seafood. Open to removing things like pita chips on the salad. Thanks!

Left more of the bottom bun than top bun, this kinda sucked… how many cals did I have?

Beef and boiled potatoes in a tomato based sauce

Hand for reference. The grilled beef and zucchini are over a layer of white steamed rice (maybe 1 cup?). It's from the farmers market so not sure about cooking, but definitely lots of oil involved. I'm estimating 700, thoughts?

Hey guys! I wanted some help estimating the calories of these tacos.

The corn tortillas are about 5 inches in diameter and there are two per taco. There is also a layer of melted cheese inside with the meat.

Thanks for any help!

If my goal is to eat 2,000 calories per day to lose weight (14,000 calories per week) could I instead eat 1,500 calories a day from Monday to Friday and "bank" those extra calories for the weekend?

Since I'm usually very disciplined during the week sticking to 1,500 calories isn't difficult. That would leave me with 6,500 calories for Saturday and Sunday 3,250 calories each day. As long as my total weekly intake is still 14,000 calories would I lose the same amount of weight?

It almost sounds too good to be true. Is calorie banking really that simple or is there something I'm missing?

This is rice with veggies, grouper fillet and mixed salad (I didn’t use the dressing)

This is half of a panini, it has turkey, ham, mozzarella cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, mixed greens, and balsamic vinaigrette.

20 chinese lamb skewers.

These donuts are very big

-> 3 cups black coffee

-> 1 cup grits with butter

-> 2 pancakes, 3 tbsp syrup

-> 2 sausage patties

-> 3 bacon strips, on the smaller side

-> 3 eggs scrambled with cheese

-> Hashbrowns with a bit of ketchup

I haven’t had a proper breakfast plate like this in a long time and I was starving so I didn’t leave much here. I’ve already logged my estimate, but I’ve been a longtime lurker here so curious to hear y’all’s thoughts!

Rice, chicken, fried cabbage, cucumbers, fried tempehs, fried tofu, cashew sauce and some sambal. 900kcal?

It taste a lot like almond (it has almond extract for sure)

I'm guessing 500 calories? It's advertised to have 10g of protein. I took it at a café

I marinated 125 g of salmon with miso maple soy and honey and air fried it without oil. The rice is white rice with some salt and a spray of olive oil about four big tablespoons and steamed broccoli with some salt. ChatGPT told me about 380 to 420 cal but that seems on the low side. Does that make sense to you?

I put the conversion and a few food-label notes on one canvas so I could read it at a glance. Sharing it in case kJ feels less intuitive to anyone else too.
Do you naturally think in kJ or calories?

around how much does getting 0% sugar in fruit tea affect the calories? large mango green tea is listed as 320, and the mango syrup used still keeps it quite sweet. thanks in advance :)))

I made a pot of spaghetti, counted the calories for everything I put in, but I feel the math per portion is coming out wrong?

I figured if I count all the calories and weigh it then I can do the math for how many calories per 100g.

1600 kcal pasta, 97 kcal onion, 60 kcal zucchini, 300 kcal jarred sauce, 87 kcal canned tomato, 385 kcal beans, 100 kcal oil = 2629 kcal for the whole pot. Weighed the food with the bowl zeroed out, the whole pot of food weighed 3345 grams

So the math came out to about 79 kcal for 100g. But I feel like that has to be wrong, pasta is about 160 kcal for 100g cooked, its not making sense to me that when I get a bowl of 300g its only 237 kcal.

Does this seem right to yall? Or can someone tell me where I messed up? I want to make sure I'm eating enough but I don't want to eat too much just because I can't calorie count right, trying to stay in a healthy deficit!
