    Also I would like to add for things in containers like peanut butter, butter, sour cream, etc. if you put the container on the scale and zero it out, when you take from it, you will get a negative number. So if you need 23 grams it will show -23 grams. It easier to weigh things like this.

    Mine blown! Thank you for the information. Great information Eric! BTW I came here from your TT. :-) Most of my confusion with MyFitnessPal is when I cook things myself. It can be hard to combine all the labels and servings to get an accurate amount when there are several ingredients.

    Binge watching your videos on a Wednesday morning. I was calorie counting , got the correct scale this time around. BUT as a mom of 4 kids all at home I found it sometime hard and slowing me down to prepare meals. But I need to get back at it so re watching to reset myself.

  • @mojisolaluyi-longe3167
    @mojisolaluyi-longe3167 2 года назад +16

    Great content. However, measuring in cups or spoons means not piling it up but leveling the cup or spoon as this will be close to the required grams even though not often exact.

I recently just started my weightloss journey and to be honest, I'm all over the place lol I just learned about calorie deficit. I've watched your video and I'm going to buy a food scale and practice this calorie deficit thing and weighing my foods from now on.. I will do this properly and get back to you in a month.
    Thank you for educating us and literally showing us how to do it lol.

Can we trust that the prepackaged items are really what they say? Or should we be taking them out of there packages and weighing them also?

    I knew exactly how complicated or meticulous the counting is and I know I won’t either do it or stick with it! My plan is to burn almost twice the amount I think or plan to take in more or less! I’m sure it can be achieved overall good health can be achieved still now im not saying it doesn’t make sense im saying don’t set yourself up for failure like saying you’re never eating rubbish no just do more good than ban like 80/20 but when you have specific goals for specific reasons then i would say let the math lead the way and I definitely learned even if you know how to read the label you can still get it wrong so whenever it matters it’s great to know I’ll definitely share it good stuff I’m always pleased with these videos
