Fundamentals: Tracking Calories

In this episode, we touch upon the crucial role of tracking calories for effective weight management, advocating the use of popular apps like MyFitnessPal and Cronometer to log food intake accurately. We also stress the importance of owning a kitchen scale for precise measurement of food portions. Emphasis is placed on tracking high calorie-dense food items such as oils, peanut butter and cheeses. We also share a variety of new vegan, high-protein, holiday-themed recipes – such as a chocolate-vanilla pudding pie, TVP chocolate chip cookies, and gingerbread cheesecake. Lastly, we ask listeners for recipe suggestions for the upcoming Veganuary and discuss what the next episode will cover – determining your ideal calorie intake.Reference Links:Kitchen Scale - https://amzn.to/3uMyPAG (This is an affiliate link, you can also just search amazon for "kitchen scale" on your own)MyFitnessPal - https://www.myfitnesspal.com/Cronometer - https://cronometer.com/Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Podcast00:26 The Importance of Tracking Calories00:43 Using Apps for Calorie Tracking01:28 Tips for Accurate Food Tracking02:50 Creating Recipes in MyFitnessPal03:31 Investing in a Food Scale03:43 Upcoming Topics and Listener Engagement04:02 Sharing New Vegan Recipes07:58 Preparing for Veganuary08:42 Closing Remarks and Future PlansSend a text⭐️ Deficient Vegans Discord ⭐️ Protein Deficient Vegan WebsiteMuscle Deficient Vegan WebsiteFollow us on social media:Muscle Deficient Vegan - Fitness & NutritionInstagramYouTubeTikTokProtein Deficient Vegan - Food & RecipesInstagramYouTubeTikTok
