Eat Twice As Much, Keep Calories The Same (Eat These Instead)

  • When people first start out with a “fat loss diet’, they are totally unaware of just how calorie dense typical food options that they’re used to eating really are. Which is one of the biggest diet mistakes around. Plus, is one of the main reasons why many who “eat clean” or “work hard” are still not losing stubborn fat. So, we’re going to showcase what 200 calories looks like in the most commonly reported “problem” foods (e.g. 200 calories of rice or pasta) so that you can see just how easy it is to overeat with these foods. We’ll then show you what 200 calories looks like with much better options (i.e. volume-dense foods) so that you can see just how much more food you could be eating and calories you could be saving with the right fat loss foods.
    We’ll start off by looking at the most common problem protein sources that were reported from clients who were not losing fat. We have ground beef, pork chop, bacon, and fattier steak cuts (e.g. New York Strip). These are packed with a ton of additional fat and hence bring up their calorie counts quite a bit. For 200 calories, you’re not getting much at all and are easy to overeat. Some better options would be to sub the ground beef for extra lean ground turkey, sub the pork chop for chicken breast, sub the bacon for turkey bacon, and just be mindful of how many calories fattier cuts of steak can quickly add up to. Some other excellent leaner protein options are egg whites and even shrimp.
    Next are carbs. Some of the most problematic snacks we found with clients who were not losing fat were oreos, potato chips, and high calorie cereals. When used in moderation these foods are fine, but there is no way you’re stopping at 200 calories, which just goes to show you how quickly the calories can add up without you being aware of it. Not to mention that the impact these foods will have on your hunger will be minimal. Better volume-dense food options include strawberries, carrots, puffed wheats, and plain air-popped popcorn.
    Additional potentially problematic carb sources include pasta and rice. These food sources aren’t “bad” at all, but they are very easy to unknowingly overeat. I mean me being half Filipino I grew up eating rice pretty much every day, and whenever I’d have it, there’s no way I’d willingly be stopping at 200 calories worth of rice. A better option would thus be cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles.
    Lastly, we have fats. Now all fats in general, even “healthy” sources will be very dense in calories. This doesn’t mean that you should avoid them since we do need a minimum amount of fat for our body’s to properly function. But, it does mean that you need to be more mindful of your portions whenever you eat them because of how easy they are to overeat. Chances are you’re eating way more than what you thought was just a serving of peanut butter or a serving of nuts. Which is why for these foods, it’s important to not only get yourself familiar with their serving sizes but actually spend the time to weigh out these foods when you consume them just to ensure you’re not overeating.
    One more problematic fat worth mentioning is salad dressings. Oil based dressings don’t provide much at all for 200 calories. In fact, many of you likely use twice or even triple this amount whenever you have a salad. Which turns what you thought was a low calorie meal into the equivalent of a couple slices of pizza. Instead, either again measure these dressings when you use them, or one of the possible ‘food swaps’ you could do is opt for salad dressing options with lower calories.
    Hopefully, you can see just how much more food you’re able to eat and how much easier it would be to suppress hunger and adhere to your diet by simply making smarter food choices. You can also see just how easy it is to essentially sabotage all the progress you may have made dieting throughout the week by making the diet mistake of letting loose on the weekends and unknowingly consuming thousands of additional calories from these more calorie dense foods. So, consider these swaps but more importantly just be mindful of your portions with certain foods. There are no real “good” or “bad” foods, just smarter food options depending on what your goal is.

      With one pound of bacon or eggs you're going to get full faster and for longer than a few pounds of low calorie carbage like a potatoes that turns into sugar in your body. A calorie isn't a calorie. The government made people fat by demonizing the way we've eaten since before agriculture (meat and eggs) in favor of extremely processed and oxidized grains (7-11 servings was taught to us in the 90's), corn, and soybean oils. It was easier to justify the high amount of cheap anti-nutrient carbage in the food stamp programs. Don't trust the government funded school system to teach the truth. It's better to eat sugar-free low-carb smaller nutrient dense meals that will keep you full all day, and that's going to be complete proteins and fats from mainly animals.

    Use smaller plates, bowls, and cups. You will want to fill up the plate. Less room, means less food. When you finish, ask yourself if you are still hungry, not whether you are full. When you are full, you've already eaten too much.

    An interesting point I came across is that processed foods offer less resistance to chew and swallow, which makes them easier to consume in higher volumes. Foods like carrots, cauliflower, lettuce offer more resistance which makes them less attractive for snacking but great for moderating your gut-brain response

      Hi Jessica, congratulations on your weight loss if that's what you wanted! Be careful, because not eating enough leads to a slower metabolism, which basically means that your body takes the habit to consume less calories in order to survive. It isn't a great thing when it comes to weight loss because the moment you'll eat "normally", your body will gain way easier. And it can definitely leads to ED as well. (I hope that makes sense, English isn't my mother tongue)
      I'm just saying this because of the "my breakfast and lunch are usually around 200 calories", when a woman has to eat between 1500 to 2200 calories a day in order to be healthy! I'm not saying that you're not healthy, or that you don't know about this but in case you actually didn't know about this I wanted to tell you.
      Take care ✨

Then I discovered how to bulk up my meals with healthier meats and a ton more healthy veggies. And I'm learning how to make many of my sauces from scratch so I can control how much sugar is in the mix. Finding healthy substitutions is so important and, turns out, kinda fun.

    Watching this video made me realize I've been eating more than 5000 calories a day when my mom cooks food. I was raised in a household that was taught to never leave any food on the table which led to me eating every single food on the table before I finish the meal.
    Edit: I live in a place where there are no side dishes, only main dishes that is served with rice so definitely I'm going to fill myself with it. And some are saying 5000 calories are impossible for a day, well if you're in a Filipino/Spanish household that eats 4-5 times a day with savory and rich food, it is possible.
    Obv, I don't eat this much today. I am on a cal deficit and have lost about 25lbs since the start of 2023. If you're living in a Filipino home where you aren't in control of the 'ulam' being served, limit your portions!

    The #1 thing is planned and structured diet, because the only way for your body to burn fat is to use it as energy. Basically, you need to eat below your energy maintenance level (in terms of calories) and your fat cells will be used to compensate the missing energy (calories). That's how your body works. There are other things to consider as well, such as hormonal status, diseases... but caloric deficit is a must. You have a lot of online diet planners and calculators like promusclegains, dietarizze, profmuscles... Losing/gaining weight is just a simple math, really...

      I too was stick skinny. I struggled to gain weight in my teens and 20’s until I had my 1 st child at 29. I was teased for having small wrists and waist.
      I now struggle to lose weight. As we get older our metabolism changes, what we once ate that did absolutely nothing to our fat cells now go straight to our waist and hips and stays there!!
      The key is to stay mindful of what you eat and how much your eating. Get plenty of protein daily and even carbs as our body needs carbs to fuel it. If you can’t gain weight simply wait a few years, time has a way of changing everything that was once NORMAL!

    A trick I have discovered to eat less sauces, salad dressings, or syrup is to measure out the amount I want to use and then dip the food into it instead of mixing it in. That way I get more of the flavor of the topping and it doesn't get diluted by being mixed in. I just have to be sure to dip lightly and not use too much with each bite.

    I was slim all my life (65 kg/145 lbs with the height of 175 cm/5'9"). Then I moved to the US and gained about 30 kg (60 lbs)!!! in 3 years!! I didn't understand what's happening as I normally make smart food choices and enjoy eating healthy. Then my doctor asked me to start counting my calories. It turned out, the US portions of food were the reason. I easily consumed 4000-5000 calories a day, even though I was eating healthy foods. I cut down my daily calorie intake to below 2000 and lost 15 kg (30 lbs) in 6 months :) 1 year later, I'm still keeping this weight. Starting now calorie counting again to lose a little more :)

He's finally taking it more seriously. It's been so hard to lose weight since moving in with him. Luckily, I've only gained 5kg, but still...
