The orange thing in the white bowl is butter. I had around half of that.

Calories in a tofu bento?

I’m genuinely so stuck rn because I thought I was picking a low cal choice but the portion was HUGE. Chat GPT estimated 800 but I’m thinking this is not true. Top left was some strange potato/sweet potato thing?

I am so stressed with counting my calories. What sources are even the most reliable? Eg. for this one recipe, the macro count in this cookbook is different from when I log it in MyFitnessPal app...

How do you guys count your calories?

I've been using this cookbook that has already specified the macro count for each recipe making it convenient for me. But I started using MyFitnessPal app as well, and when I log the exact same ingredients from a recipe in the cookbook just to check, the macro count is either way over or way under. Most of the time over. I even tested other recipes I found in Tiktok and doublechecked in the app, and it's the same issue.

For example, for some overnight oats in tiktok, it was like 350 cal vs. 543 in the app..... Another example is, for korean bulgogi, it was 570 cal in the cookbook vs. 700 in the app....

I am so stressed with meal prepping already and now I'm stressed with which sources are the most reliable so I can do my calorie deficit routine right or whatever. What should I do and what do you guys do?

why cant i lose?

I have a history of binge and restrict eating and all or nothing training.
last year i was down to 63kg an loved how i looked. That was eating approx 1400 cals a day and weight training 2 times per week, 3 max.
The weight loss was mainly form diet but i eventually couldn't sustain it and blew baack up to 69 which i am now.

Im 46 years old - female
165cm
weigh about 68-69kg

I shave started back doing 2 x 45 min weight sessions a week with a PT followed up with a very brisk 45 min walk.

Ive been eating 1550 or less for three weeks straight and the scales havent budged.

i have done this for 3 weeks consistently.

Why is it so hard. 1500 cals isn't even that much food really. No idea how i was eating 1400 or less a year ago.

Im so tired of the yo yo and just want to get to my ideal weight and be able to maintain it.

I am sooo tired all the time and so sick of tracking absolutely everything i eat and drink.

Is using ChatGPT or Claude ok for calorie counting?

I give them the exact measurements and all and it’s just easier to have them calculate it and record it throughout the day, so I’ve been using those. But Claude straight up told me it’s not comfortable calculating it for me anymore cuz I’m supposed to use a proper app or a nutritionist for this purpose? So I’m kind of torn. I used MyFitnessPal for a bit but it gives a million different values especially for desi food which is a bit difficult to describe and put a label to. Any insight?
