    Yep like the other comment said there are ways around that and also there’s definitely a threshold of accuracy. Make your recipe close enough and save it for next times then just estimate the amount you had, close enough is definitely good enough.

      That requires one to use a written recipe and not freehand cooking meals with whatever you have on hand

        Not necessarily it just means you need to weigh your main ingredients. I never said it was gonna be a walk in the park and that you can lose the weight without making any effort or adjustments to your diet and way of cooking, obviously the counting is just a tool to understand and visualise your calorie intake, it’s still up to you to adapt what you cook and eat.
