Ok guys I'm confused.

How do I keep track of everything I eat ? If I want to eat at a surplus then I need to eat more than my total calorie intake. It's so hard to track though, would I have to track only a few foods and just eat the same things ? How is it possible to keep track of everything you eat?

Such as a meat sandwich, like how do you find the exact calories and protein in that? Would this be something I'd just need a scale for?

How did you deal with this? What am I doing wrong?

There's an app for that

you... read nutrition labels and.... use basic math?

like, how in the world is this hard?
>>
You have wlto weight what you eat and make it yourself obviously.

There are also appa that can help with logging until you get better at it

you don't even need fancy apps, lol

notepad on your phone will do, or a real notepad, or frankly just the calculator and your own brain

learn how many calories are in things then eyeball it.

don't both calorie counting, just monitor your bodyfat. if you're bulking, eat til you're stuffed everyday, and if you start gaining too much fat scale it back. you'll eventually become comfortable estimating how much you're eating

>meat sandwiches
Make your own damn sandwiches. I get that this can be hard to adapt into your life, counting calories, but understand that your post devoles into
>guis how do i count numbers?
Google addition. You don't have to eat the same things, but eating things you know nutritionally is easier at the start.

Yeah I know that's easy but what if it's something I cooked myself ? How do people eyeball calories ?

What ? I am making my own sandwiches I'm wondering how I count the calories and protein in it.

Wtf are you stupid?

You cook 1 cup of rice, 1/4 cup has 32g of carbs and 125 calories, so theres 32g*4= 128g carbs and 125cal*4= 500cal

You cook one chicken breast the fucking bag it comes in says 1/2 chicken breast has 30g protein and 200 calories

Now youve got a 900 calorie meal with 60g of protein and 128g of carbs.

Do the same for any sauces or veggies you add. Any retard can do this.
