Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
13
Anyway, let's start with breakfast
.
We'll calculate my basic breakfast, and we'll give you an example of how this works. Now, it's important to remember that your breakfast may be a little bit different than mine. One of the things that has always stopped me from using any kind of weight loss application is the fact that they are just impossible. I mean how many calories are in a latte? Maybe I go to Starbucks today and I get a McDonald's coffee the next day. It's just not something that I want to mess with. So I don't use these things. This one is brilliant, however. Let's click on breakfast.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
14
It's going to load in
.
OK, let's start off with breakfast, which is the first thing I do in the morning. Look at that, alcohol at the top of the list, that's not cool. Beer, these are not really what I would call breakfast drinks, but I guess some people may have them. If you do, well the stuff is here. Coffee, well, I confess to making myself lattes.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
15
So, as I was saying, I'm just going to click my latte
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
16
That is what I have, I have a latte every day, a warm latte
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
17
The next thing I am going to do, I am going to click on done
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
18
Alright, I don't need to add a food picture, I don't need to add notes
.
I could if I wanted to.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
19
I can check on the nutritional information
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
20
Fantastic, 135 calories
.
Honestly, I'm not too worried about any of that stuff. I just want to make sure that I understand what I have. Now, let's add some more breakfast stuff. What else do I have? Well, I do try to be a little bit fresh if you will, and I try to make myself some juice. So here we go, juice.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
21
Orange juice, 45 calories per hundred grams
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
22
I'd say I probably have about 200 grams
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
23
So, let's see, well here we go
.
1 cup, there we go. So 1 cup of juice. More or less, 200 grams. OK, done.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
24
And now I've got my breakfast, I've got 250 calories
.
Let's save that.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
25
And that gets us back here to breakfast
.
Now, let's add some more stuff here.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
26
What else do I eat
?
I eat eggs. I love my eggs. I eat the entire egg and I fry them.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
27
So, fried eggs
.
How many fried eggs do I have? Well, I usually make 2 or 3 eggs over easy. We've actually got a video on how to fry eggs. If you want to see how they get fried. I'm going to go with the big eggs, I like myself some big, fried eggs.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
28
I have large eggs, and honestly, I have 3
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
29
That's a lot, I know
.
But, my heart is still ticking. So, we're good to go there. I don't even want a picture of my breakfast, I know what it looks like. So that's 523 calories of my 3000 calorie goal. If I had a smaller calorie goal, then that would be less food.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
30
I can tap on my little bar graph here
.
And see how far up the list I am. For today's things.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help

A large cheeseburger.

Nice and easy, there, OK

609 calories right there. That might not be exactly how many calories the large cheeseburger is, but it is about 609 calories, maximum 700. You might get one that is a little bit less. At any rate, that's your cheeseburger.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
35
You can even take a picture of it if you want to
.
Save it.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
36
And there you go, you've got your calories
.
More calories in my cheeseburger than in my whole entire breakfast. Latte and 3 fried eggs and butter.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
37
Anyway, that is what you do to get yourself set throughout the day
