I can't eyeball my macros for shit!

If you are frustrated with the count, you can send that meal this way and I'll dispose of it properly...
I just realized after eating this....
...that I always underestimate my macros by a lot. Apparently that's 110g of protein I just ate. Am I crazy!?!? I've been eating more than I think for a long time. 16oz of chicken there. Yikes, I really need to get a good scale.
Look like yammy

I went through the same dilemma 4 years ago when I got a food scale and really started tracking macros. Found out I was eating like 14oz of chicken a meal instead of 8, so I was getting over 400g of protein per day.I just realized after eating this....

I can't stress the importance of food weighing enough until you get a good grasp on what you're really taking in

Just take smaller bites & add a whole shitload of lettuce.You can eat a whole popcorn bowl of lettuce & it's like 16 cal(DQMOT)
I weighed spinach by the gram and almost shit how much you can eat for 20 calories
I hear that!The only bad thing is you're hungry an hour later.
Doesn't spinach give really bad gas too ????
Nope….only rattle snake
its basically impossible to eyeball things like that unless you are a fucking stickler like i am... i can get 8 oz. pretty much on the dot now but thats because i have been using a scale so long... just go to bed bath and beyond and get one there... they have some really good ones and you can get a really nice one for $50 or less...
That goes for any greens pretty much. I don't even count those. Not worth it at all. Set all of that stuff you want. It actually is a thermogenic food with green veggies because it takes your body more energy to digest it that is contained in its contents.

No fucking way that's 110g of protein. 16oz of cooked chicken breast? I guess I can't eyeball either. Yea dude after taking a second look I would have guessed like 80g. No way it looks like 110g
