All your points are great. Must always be mindful of each element going into your food. However, I find a lot of people tend to over complicate the process and think to be mindful, you must also complicate the process of cooking/ shopping. 90% of issues with portion control and serving sizes is to have a food scale... Yet so many people that go into this journey/ lifestyle don't use one.
Thanks Dalton I will purchase some lean ground beef or ground turkey if they have it at the market tomorrow. Have a good one. Sugar free sauce is genius I spend too much time reading nutrition labels 😂
Yeah with eating out you have no idea how they cook all your food. I’ve seen the cooks lazily prep foods in a fryer that should be grilled on a grill you never know
it wasn't until i bought a scale and started actually weighing my beef that I could see how many calories I was actually eating. I LOVE beef, and could easily eat 1000 calories is a meal, even though i made it home cooked. Using the scale I'm much more conscious about my portions and already lost 6 pounds in 2 weeks. Switching to deer meat has also been a good alternative for me, it has about half the calories and I can't taste a difference.Buying the Extra lean ground beef as you suggested in the video is another great option!
How do you add the calories of the meat though? I eat 90/10 ground beef. I make 5oz (raw) burgers. Package says 4oz equals 240 cals. So what am I actually having? What if I want to portion it out for the family in something other than a burger?
Generally I just cook the meat then weigh it. Because if I ever have left overs, I can rely on the weight of the cooked meat than raw. But both methods can work
You have made a great video that has hooked me in! I subbed and I think this channel is worth more subs. The main thing I need from other channels is getting to the point and teaching me things without being too complicated. And you have taught me in a way that is like an actual human being not just as a youtuber who wants to use big words.
