CalorieKing great for menu ideas



Recommended Posts

CalorieKing has some good food ideas, i joined up and finally made my way around the site, but you can make up your own menus with their suggested food and it counts the calories for you so basically after you put in your details it calculates what your calory intake should be and works it from there.

EG: (First number is cals, 2nd is Kj)

Breakfast

(x) 3/4 cup of low fat milk, 1% 86 361

(x) 1 cup of Uncle Toby's Fibreplus 106 441

(x) 1 cup, mashed (225g) of fruit, fresh: banana, raw, edible portion 200 835

Meal Total 392 1637

lunch Load Meal | Save Meal Cals kJ

(x) 1 serving, 100g can drained (90g) of John West: Fish, canned: Light tuna Tempters, Onion & Tomato, Drained 81 340

(x) 3 cracker (3.2g) of Arnott's: Crackers: Jatz 97% Fat Free 39 162

Meal Total 120 502

dinner Load Meal | Save Meal Cals kJ

(x) 1 small serving of fruit 50 210

(x) 1 serving of Steamed Fish with Rice and Broccoli (View Recipe) 323 1342

(x) 3 cups of tea or coffee, black 36 162 (throughout day)

(x) 1 carton (200g) of Yoghurt: Fruit Flavoured, Fat-Free / Diet, Average All Flavours 94 390

Meal Total 503 2104

Snacks Load Meal | Save Meal Cals kJ

(x) 1 tablespoon of peanuts 168 693

(x) 2 cups of popcorn, air-popped 54 225

Meal Total 222 918

Food Total Cals kJ

Day Total 1237 5161

This is an example when i was playing around trying to figure it all out.. Then at the bottom after all that it says:

You have used 1237 out of your net daily budget of 1470 calories and have 233 calories remaining. 17% of the calories are from fat, 29% from Protein, 54% from carbs and 0% from alcohol.

Anyhow i thought it was great and helps when making htose choices of what to eat to ensure you arent eating too much or too little..

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
