    Holy crap. I just downloaded this app. I’m getting back into it. I started at 375lbs and today I weighed 343lbs. I been at it for 8 weeks.
    It’s a bit daunting so far.

  • @believeinjesus8300

    Cool video bro. I just started with this app and I like it. Is there a section that will show you consumption in grams? Like for ex Mikey ate 120 grams of fat, 29 grams carbs and 200 grams of protein. I like to see my diet this way as well as calories. Also I know I can just ask Siri to divide 800 by 4 to get 200 grams of protein. It would just be cool to see automatically in app.

    Hey again thanks for your info. Is there a difference for women after menopause in the way we burn calories? Is that need to change on the calculator?

    • @dustin.k.williams
      @dustin.k.williams  2 роки тому

      Typically, no. I would still calculate your initial calorie intake the exact same way. Then, if you end up not seeing results on that calorie intake I would then start to drop them.

    Thanks for the great vid. I'm skinny fat and I'm doing weight training. How important is it to weigh food? Is it truly important to weigh every potato, slice of cheese, cup of rice etc? I'm not after a ripped body, just want to lose my stomach and bulk up. If I eyeball my food will that make much of a difference to overall results?

    • @dustin.k.williams
      @dustin.k.williams  3 роки тому +2

      If you’re wanting to track your calories then weighing your food is important. If you’re gonna take the time to track you want to make sure you’re doing it accurately. Once you’ve done it a little while you’ll start to get good at it and find it’s quite easy and not time consuming at all.

    Hi, I'm new to keeping up with weights & measures, could you please explain how I can reset my total target calories on Cronometer? I've tried but don't see how to do it.
    The app is saying my daily calories are something like 2,284.
    If I eat that many calories, I'll GAIN weight instead of lose.
    So how do I change that number?
    Also can it be changed from "kcal" to "cal"?
    Kcal is confusing me, or is it basically the same as Cal?
    And thank you for being so thorough and explaining it all so clearly.
    Thanks.

    • @dustin.k.williams
      @dustin.k.williams  2 роки тому +1

      On the app consider kcal and cal the same. To change calories it’s under settings -> energy settings. Then create a custom energy target

    What do you think about the calories not adding up based on grams of macros in Cronometer? Do you go by the calories listed by Cronometer or just try to hit macro grams since their calorie listing is not based on the standard 4/4/9 calories per gram?

    • @dustin.k.williams
      @dustin.k.williams  6 місяців тому

      There can be multiple reasons for this. Sometimes they round off. Or they may not count any calories that come from fiber.

    I've noticed the cronometer page no longer has the 3 rings along the top. Now I have to go to the daily report and the rings show vertically. I need to see how many calories I've consumed on the first page. Did I accidentally change a setting or is the something Cronometer has done to the app, do you know?

      If you swipe the top box sideways you have different options you can see. One of them is the 3 rings with calorie numbers.

    Hi Dustin! My fat intake is always in the red and I’m not sure how many calories I have available. What should I be looking at? Should I try to hit 100 percent for each category? I’m attempting Keto.

    • @dustin.k.williams

      You’ll always be in the red for fat if you’re trying to do keto. You can manually input the numbers you want to hit for fat, carbs and proteins.
