• what are you doing to save money on food?

  2) Some foods fill you up more than others, even if you eat the same quantity. This is the food’s satiety. There are websites that can give you the satiety index for lots of different foods. For example, the nutrition data website allows you to search for particular foods, and it tells you every nutrient found in it, along with its satiety index. Excellent for nerding out.

• Is there any official charts or statistics about amount of fructose in fruits and berries?

  Was it this? https://nutritiondata.self.com It lists fructose if you click on “more details” below the carbohydrates. Source: about 1 year ago

• ... Am I just missing something and have been entering calories wrong this whole time or are Josh's calculations just off? Lol

• How can one be sure to eat all relevant nutrients?

  In practice, once you've settled on some dietary routine, one can just do a 'spot check' on a typical daily diet, just to see if there may be some nutrient that is of particular concern. For me, its typically magnesium or zinc. If you want to increase intake of some particular nutrient, you can use the Nutrient Search Tool on https://nutritiondata.self.com/ to search through the USDA nutrition databases by amounts...

• Is it necessary to eat a variety of fruits, or can I eat the same fruit every day and have my fruit needs met?

  You could look up the nutrients in it. I used to use nutritiondata.self.com, but they still haven't updated their system to show amino acids after Flash stopped being supported. And the main reason I liked them in particular is that most nutrition labels don't include essential amino acids. Source: over 1 year ago

• Feeling discouraged

  I have tried crash diets in the past and have never felt this good or this energetic. I'm going to keep going like this until I'm at my goal weight. I gained 60 lbs from taking this antipsych med called zyprexa (it's known for extreme weight gain fast but I was like I'd rather be mentally ok than fit and thin right now so I'm basically trying to reverse it. I use loseit.com to track my cals and exercise works... Source: about 1 year ago

• no motivation

  Follow that guide and that timing, and you'll be able to start putting some data around your diet. Start with your regular, normal food. My favorite tool for this is now-better LoseIt! Over MyFitnessPal which has been on the decline for years. Source: about 1 year ago

• [23] I gained about 10 kgs in the past year. starting from zero knowledge on weight loss any advice? pics are from 2021 dec and last week (2023 mar)

  You can use a TDEE calculator to work out approximately how many calories your body is using per day. You need to eat in a deficit of around 15-20% of your TDEE to see decent weight loss. You can use an app like Lose It! To track your food intake and see how many calories you're eating. People are notoriously bad at underestimating the calories that they consume so I really recommend you do some calorie tracking.... Source: about 1 year ago

• Is 1200 calories actually enough?

  At 1200 kCal/day you'll certainly lose weight, but it probably won't be safe... My older-but-similarly-sized spouse gets about 1600 (to lose weight) if she sits on the couch, so being active will certainly bump that up. We use an app called lose it to track both food and exercise and it seems to do a decent enough job for me and her. So your 1200 may be fine if you're a couch potato, but it sounds like you need...

• Progress tracking app?

  I use LoseIt. I've used it since I started on phentermine back in 2007, so it has a lot of historical data for me. It has a good barcode scanner and remembers your most frequently added items so once you put in a meal, you can just click into that section when adding foods and it will have the full list of ingredients from meals there.
