You’ve disappointed the Wii Fit balance board
Still count it. Incorrect data is usless. Accurate data showing bad result is still usable.
Kudos to being able to shove down a whole cake, but it can be balanced off by being in a slight deficit for a while or if it doesn’t happen regularly. Then just ignored. Calorie and weight tracking runs on avarages on scale of weeks to months.
Whiniest fucking Sith Lord ever.
He had potential too. Like when he stopped that blaster bolt, that was aura then he lost it immediately.
That was so badass. It’s really a crime how hard Disney fucked the sequel trilogy, but The Force Awakens was at least fun. The other two were hot garbage.
Calorie counting is nonsense anyway.
How so? It’s only an abstraction, but it’s the simplest way to estimate how much you shoved in your face.
is there an open source app of calorie counting?
I imagine, but I don’t know. Sorry.
It’s not accurate enough to be useful. You know the difference between a snickers bar and a cucumber. One is very energy dense, one is not. Putting specific numbers on it adds no value when those numbers are just guesses.
What makes you think they’re just guesses?
And if it isn’t accurate enough to be useful, why does counting calories and running a caloric deficit help you lose weight? Personal experience says you’re wrong on that one.
Personal experience is wildly unscientific.
If attempting to count calories leads to eating less, and that leads to weight loss, bravo, you did a thing. But you could accomplish the same thing just by going to bed a little bit hungry most nights.
Do you know how they figured out how much energy is in food? The burned it. Literally burned, with fire. You may be surprised to learn that’s not what our bodies do.
If you’re eating processed food from a factory, the estimate of energy contained in the food (note, this is not what you’ll absorb from the food) may be fairly accurate, but if you ever cook at home, then you’re just adding a wild guess on top of an educated guess. You may as well just throw some darts at some numbers and save yourself some time.

Counting calories to eat less likely means going to bed hungry. And that’s easier to do if you’re attempting to keep under a certain threshold. Which counting calories is a close enough approximation to get the job done.
And your assertion that it’s impossible to count calories when cooking at home is just ignorant at best. It’s not that hard to put the approximate calorie count in for all the ingredients, and the total calorie count by the servings you made. I and multiple people I know, and many more I don’t but have followed online) have used this kind of method to lose weight.
No matter your opinion on the matter, counting calories is actually accurate enough to help you lose weight. it doesn’t need to be a perfect tool to live in your toolbox.
While the type of food you eat matters tremendously to your overall health, the number of calories you eat vs expend daily absolutely matters also
Sure it matters, but you don’t know. You don’t know how many calories you are actually absorbing from that food, and you don’t know how long it takes to burn them off. Your metabolism can do all kinds of shenanigans, and unless the CO2 you’re breathing out is being measured, you simply don’t know what it’s up to.
The amount of food you eat matters dude. It’s ok to track
Literally the first 3 words of the comment you’re replying to: “sure it matters”
…in what way? If you consume more calories than your body burns to function, the excess is stored as mass. The opposite if you consume less, excess mass is burned. This is basic science, so if you’ve discovered some new major breakthrough in how human biology works I think we’d all be curious to hear it.
Don’t say you had 1 big cake. Just say you had 12 sample slices…
Gene Simmons has had a lot of work do. He looks so young here.
And it wasn’t your birthday
It wasn’t even my birthday 😭
