Do you count your calories?

[Dannnny,]

No LOL. But i do watch wot i eat im a bit paronoid that way LOL

[Sharon]

oh god i don't actually look ever

this thread makes me look fat

[Cosmic]

No. I mean generally I can tell whether I've ate too much or too little and counting calories would probably just get on my nerves after a while.

[Gemma]

No, but I usually read the carbohydrate content.

No, but I usually read the carbohydrate content.

Oh my god the only good answer in this thread except the skinnies who are making sure they get over a certain amount.

It's interesting to see how many people read the fat and salt content when there isn't any reason to (except avoiding excess polyunsaturates). If you think your kidneys are too stupid to excrete excess sodium causing blood pressure to rise then... stop eating all that dogma for breakfast I guess. I guess the fact that saturated fats improve a lipid profile dramatically also slipped the net, just because they ever so slightly increase total cholesterol, not that total cholesterol means anything. But since people only remember what they want ot hear I expect this will just be ignored.

[Chris]

No but I'm going to start. I know I must have gone over today. Oops. >.<

[myke]

i dont necessarily count them, but i don't eat foods that are high in calories and if i do i make sacrifices the next day

[PaulMacC]

No. I used to. But now that I am eating the same foods such as chicken, turkey, lean mince, beef, eggs etc. I know roughly what they equate to.

[Becca]

Not really, I eat what I eat but obviously don't go overboard and eat everything in the fridge. Just make sure I'm not eating loads of crap?

[,Lexiilu]

i keep a basic idea but i dont count every calorie
i'm a bit um...weight crazy so i'm trying to break the "habit" by not being obsessed with calorie count
