I'd love to see this in action for a recipe; that's where macro tracking trips me up. For example, last night I made a veggie skillet with six different vegetables, balsamic vinegar, spices, and some vegan parmesan. I was able to measure out the chicken and quinoa I served alongside it, but I didn't know how to weigh out the veggies without adding every single ingredient and then knowing what a serving of that skillet is. How do you know a serving size when you just whip up things without a recipe? Thanks!
thank you for this video Kristi , easy and simple , out of all the videos out there on this topic this one was right to the chase and easy to understand ! Jesus be with you ! God bless u !
Is it possible to count the macros of the food without scanning them? I live in a country where we buy most food from local stores who bring their own fruits and vegetables in their own bags without any labels.
A serving of blueberries is 140g, a serving of PB is 32g. If you look on the back of label you will see serving size and then next to it you will see a number in g also! For example it might be 1 C blueberries which also = 140g. I like to use g because I find it more accurate. I could do a heaping cup which could actually be 165g and I think it is 140.... I hope that helps!
@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnellhi Kristi, in terms of macros and putting balanced meals together, how do you determine what a portion size is to start with? Do we always just follow the portion on the label? Or how would we know what portions to adjust to if you need less or more? X
@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell I bought a different one, it was 12 bucks and just came in, thanks for the reply, I have liked and subscribed, your videos especially with the calculations is spectacular, keep it up // Adi
The macrosystem is a good program but for example with larger weights it doesn't work. For example, I weigh 76.5 kg (168lbs) and want to gain muscle mass, my form is athletic (genetically and due to training) when calculating, I should eat from 3.000 to 3.300 calories per day, even though this is normal, but when calculating proteins according to the macro system, I should consume 240 grams of protein per day, and this already turns out 3 grams of protein per 1 kg of body, and this is 1 gram more than with normal weight gain, besides gaining 240 grams of protein per day, I think it will be very difficult. Therefore, I have a question, did I count something wrong or this system does not work with large weights. Thanks for the answer
You have no idea how much your nutrition videos have helped me. You are such a great teacher! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

Great video! The nut butter initially showed 16 grams on scale so I was initially confused when you said it was 26 grams.
YES! I saw that too
Do I weigh protein sources like meats before or after cooking?
Missed these longer videos thanks Kristi!
Weighing my food has been a game changer for me, portion control is so difficult without it and it’s way too easy to eat too much without realizing it
Your videos are always so helpful! Thank you!
Thank you nice video and the scales are better than just apps, and fasting. It’s harder to do but more accurate

how do you know to choose 140g of blueberries or 16g of pb? is that just what 1 serving is?

Which app do you prefer?
App “macros”
Hi thanks for making the video great info, what app are you using to add up your micros ?
I have been using the 1stphorm app ... 1stPhorm.app/Kristi
I also have used my fitness pal in the past
What is the app she's using to count her macros? I can't make out what she's saying...about 6:33 into the video.
I use the 1stphorm app! I love it! www.1stphorm.app/Kristi
the scale added is a battery scale, not a rechargeable I believe, can you share the correct one if possible

Is there any other app that doesn’t have age restrictions? Or is there another way on how to do the math and keep track without an app?
Just lie about your age?
Can you please post the link for the rechargeable scale? The scale you linked to needs batteries. Thank you.
Sorry jsut updated the video link , arboleaf!
unfortunately the Food scale that you linked in the box isn´t rechargeable. Its with bateries ...
Sorry just looked the new one, its by arboleaf!
