Hey there,

Another random question...

I used the calculator online to get an idea of how much calories I should be taking in each day, and that came to 2000.

After tellying up heaps of stuff... I can't even count up to 500 Cal that I'm eating.

I must be counting it all wrong, but how do I calculate it all?
 
Try using a site like or to do the adding.

its pretty darned easy to get to 2000, i would definatly not eat just 500 calories a day, you will send your body into starvation mode :D
 
I agree. There is also a great book called food counts that you look the food up and it gives you the cal count.

What web site gives you the cal count?

This is the most accurate online food database that I am aware of. I know many of the industry's top professionals use it.

I would agree. This is actually an instance in which tax dollars went to good use. :)

Also, start reading labels and keeping an accurate count of EVERYTHING that goes into your mouth.
 
I just wish they had something similar for NZ or england that was in grams or something i can estimate rather than oz (i have no idea how much an oz is lol)
