Energy is measured in kcal = kilocalories or kj = kilojoules.<br \/>\nIt is easy to count calories, on most food products it is giving a nutritional per 100 grams.\u00a0I recommend you to buy a foodscale, you will need that to know how much your food weights so you can get exactly how many calories the food contains. CUPS and DECILITER measures could also work depending on what you are going to eat.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Example: You are about to eat a salmon fillet.<br \/>Nutritional \/ 100 g<br \/>Energy 757 kJ, 181 kcal<br \/>Protein 18.0 grams<br \/>Carbohydrates 0.0 grams<br \/>Fat 12.0 grams<\/p>\n<p>The food provided nutrition declaration per 100 grams. Therefore, you must share the portion weight by 100 grams to get the correct values. A salmon fillet weights about 125 grams, which means 125 g \/ 100 g = 1.25<br \/>Energy = 1.25 x 181 calories = 226.25 kcal \/ salmon<br \/>Protein = 1.25 x 18 g protein = 22.5 grams of protein \/ salmon<br \/>Carbohydrates = 1.25 x 0 g carbs = 0 g carbs \/ salmon<br \/>Fat = 1.25 x 12 g fat = 15 grams of fat \/ salmon<\/p>\n<p>If you are going to eat rice or as pasta, dry goods then check the nutritional content of the calorie value is specified in either dry or not. If an example is 100 grams of pasta in dry weight becomes much more because the pasta will swell during cooking.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to make it easier you can use a app that helps you count your calories. I recommend Myfitnesspal and ShapeUpclub. I like ShapeUp most so Im paying for that app now. To use these apps you just need to know how much the food weights and then you can search at ex salmon and add how many grams you had and the app will count the energy by itself. Super easy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t recommending to count calories though, if your not over weight and really needs to lose weight. If you eat clean and healthy the calorie counting isnt necessary. Its easy to get obsessed by counting and lots of people starts to avoiding foods because they know the calories in it and they stop to enjoy foods.\u00a0Eat healthy and clean and dont worry, its okey to enjoy unhealthy food sometimes and that wont affect you weight or progress.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn1.cdnme.se\/cdn\/9-1\/3836821\/images\/2013\/diet_50eb2a4ae087c30b088b708a.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto\" class=\"image\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mat inneh\u00e5ller n\u00e4rings\u00e4mnen som ger kroppen energi.

Jag rekommenderar Myfitnesspal och ShapeUpclub. Jag gillar ShapeUp mest s\u00e5 jag har valt att betala f\u00f6r den. F\u00f6r att anv\u00e4nda dessa appar \u00e4r allt \u00a0du beh\u00f6ver bara veta hur mycket maten v\u00e4ger och sedan kan du s\u00f6ka p\u00e5 ex lax och l\u00e4gga in hur m\u00e5nga gram du \u00e5t av det och appen kommer d\u00e5 r\u00e4kna ut n\u00e4ringsv\u00e4rdet \u00e5t dig. Super l\u00e4tt.<\/p>\n<p>Jag vill inte rekommendera att r\u00e4kna kalorier s\u00e5vida du inte \u00e4r \u00f6verviktig och verkligen beh\u00f6ver g\u00e5 ner i vikt f\u00f6r att vara h\u00e4lsosam.
