Tips for Sticking to 1,700 Calories

  • Meal prep on Sunday: Prepare proteins and chop vegetables ahead of time to make weekday meals quick.
  • Use a food scale: Eyeballing portions is the #1 reason calorie counts are off. A $10 food scale changes everything.
  • Track with Calory: Log every meal to stay accountable. The app makes it easy with barcode scanning and AI food recognition.
  • Drink water first: Sometimes thirst feels like hunger. Drink a glass of water before reaching for a snack.
  • Don't skip meals: Skipping meals leads to overeating later. Spread your 1,700 calories across the day.
  • Allow flexibility: If you go over at lunch, adjust dinner. One bad meal doesn't ruin the plan.
