You should ask to talk to a manager if your server is unable to help you because all restaurants are required to have nutritional information available for their customers. Sometimes they may wind up referring you to their website or something, but they really should have that information available for ALL of their customers at their time of arrival. If the restaurant does not, maybe you should look for the ones that DO have the nutritional information. Chain restaurants are usually the easiest because they have a standard measurement of ingredients in their food, so they are the same whether you are in Alaska or Florida.\n\n-EA

Hmmm, counting calories is tough.  \n\nIt is better to have a concept of things and how much energy they give you rather than trying to memorize caloric values.  \n\nIf you learn to associate certain foods as being "bad" and certain ones as being "good" you will achieve the same result with less effort, but then you would be called as "calorie aware" rather than "calorie counter"

My guess is that would be the same as "Watching TV" (pick that in the drop-down box and type in the time spent and your weight).\n\nhttp://www.caloriecontrol.org/exercalc.html

i dont count calories. what you want is a well balanced diet. you should eat every time you are hungry (about 5 times a day), but you must stop eating as soon as you are not hungry. just try to make better food choices, cut excess junk food. if you are truely craving something, that is your body's way of telling you what you need.

If you email me, I will gladly give you a diet based on Jenny Craig and Nutrisystem. You can do it yourself at home. You won't need to measure anything or count calories. It is all already proportioned. It involves all food groups and is based on 1250 calories. Very healthy.  I have shared it with many askers on yahoo answers.\n\nModification:\nI got your request but your email link is "not verified" so the email won't go through.  Please contact me again and include your normal email address so I can get back in touch with you!

Don't count calories. The stress from it is unhealthy. This site has everything you need to know. It is mostly NOT your fault, if you need to lose weight. The way you have been taught to eat is responsible for making obesity the number one health problem in the world (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) soon surpassing hunger and infectious disease. So you are a victim of this pandemic (epidemic).\n\nYou need to re-learn how to eat. Find out about fastest way to lose weight, slow ways to lose weight, most effective exercise and anti-water. Learn everything on site below so you can understand how food and exercise affects your body. Do this and you can be thin. Do this not, and you will remain part of the biggest pandemic in all of history. Due to this pandemic, for the first time in 100 years, the children of Americans have a lower life expectancy than their parents

The number of calories *is* the total number of calories.  Calories only come from protein, fat, or carbs.  So listing the "calories from fat" is just telling you the fat calories.  If you add up the number of calories from protein, fat, and carbs, you should get the total number of calories- the number on the label after "calories."\n\nPcal + Fcal + Ccal = Total Calories.\n\nSo yes, that first calorie reading is what is contributing to your total calorie intake.  The rest just tell you what the calories consist of.

Measure your portions.  Many people are surprised when they find out what an actual portion is.  \nMake half of your supper vegetables, 25% complex carbohydrate, and 25% lean protein.  Have fruit for desert.\nEat whole grain cereal with fruit and low fat milk or soymilk at breakfast.  Have a large salad with low-cal dressing at lunch, lean protein, and 1 serving of complex carbohydrate.\nSnack on fruit between meals if you get hungry.  Drink water at each meal and with each snack.\nDo a  bit  of research on portion sizes.  This is really important for calorie control.

You are not eating enough calories.  Using the numbers you provided in your question, I calculated your BMR & RMR and this is what I got:\n\nThe results of your calculations are:  BMR 2,262   RMR 2,071 \nFor an explanation of BMR and RMR and important notes on the accuracy of these calculations, please see our FAQ entitled, What do BMR and RMR stand for? While BMR is much more widely used than RMR, our FAQ explains why RMR is likely to be more appropriate for your needs. \nAs BMR and RMR only represent resting energy expenditure or calories burned during a day of rest, an adjustment must be made to reflect activity level. This can be done by multiplying your BMR and RMR by an activity factor: \nFactor     Category         BMR       RMR   \n1.2         Bed Rest       2,714     2,485 \n1.3         Sedentary      2,941     2,692 \n1.4         Active         3,167     2,899 \n1.5         Very Active    3,393     3,107 \n \nAs you can see, you aren't even eating enough calories to support bed rest.  Your body is in starvation mode and holding onto every calorie that you eat.\n\nGradually increase your calorie intake.  Eat smaller meals more frequently.  And, yes, add weight training.  \n\nSee the links in the source for some more info about BMR and RMR.

Look at the calories per serving listed on the bag.  Multiply by the number of servings.  Multiply by 3.\n\nRecall you need to eat an excess of 3500 calories to gain 1 pound.\n\nDecide whether those calories were in excess of what you normally eat or did the 3 bags of chips keep you from eating other meals?

The first thing to evaluate is if and how much you exercise. Do you do yoga, run, play sports, wash cars etc.? If you do anything that you think burns calories go here http://calorielab.com/burned/ and enter your information to see how many calories the activities you participate in burn. Add up all the calories you burn in these activities daily, and there you go! Pick out healthy foods you like and make sure you eat MORE calories daily than you burn daily. Be SURE not to just pig out on junk food, because if you ever want to lose the weight you gained, it might be harder if you just took in a bunch of simple carbs.
