Cronometer is fantastic, got great features for food tracking and is a genuinely well-made & reliable piece of software which is refreshing these days

yeah weighing your food and meticulously tracking everything you eat is extreme. do you think humans even 50 years ago needed to do that to be healthy?

Skipping a meal or two is perfectly fine despite what Big Food will try to tell you.

it’s pretty easy to not gain weight if you only keep whole plant foods at home and rarely eat out. like the only thing I need to consciously limit are nut butters.

I'm doing it because I need to drop a lot of weight. If I keep eating the type and quantities of foods I eat now after I drop all that weight, I won't have to track it and can be confident I can maintain my weight and be healthy, but if you want to change your body yeah you gotta track that poo poo The reason we didn't use to have to track things was because food was a lot scarcer and life was a lot harder

I've been on the thigh superiority train for a decade now but only recently have I discovered that it's better to buy bone in skin on chicken thighs and then debone them at home. keep the bones in a gallon ziplock in the freezer and then use them to make stock when you've got enough. skin on boneless thighs are extremely good in a sandwich or anything really

I read this recently which is a nice insight into what some americans were eating in the 20s and 30s https://slimemoldtimemold.com/2022/04/04/book-review-a-square-meal-part-i-foods-of-the-20s-and-30s/ if you look at old cookbooks from around the same time you'll be struck by how many 'calories' each meal was as they're all full of cream, butter and animal fats and meat. and yet, people didn't need to track calories to stay healthy and slim.

It's this There's a pretty big difference between eating 1lb of corned beef over an entire day and doing manual labor vs eating 1lb of corned beef, getting into your car, driving to your office, driving home, and watching tv
