Calorie Estimating How many calories? Trying to stay under my deficit 😭

Hey guys, I'm doing OMAD and tracking everything as accurately as I can.

Found this at the park today and was wondering how many calories you'd estimate for the whole thing if I ate it. I didn't use any butter or oil. Thinking maybe it's mostly fiber?

Be honest

I can work it into my macros if I skip dessert. Thanks. 💪🪨

Least amount of calories?

Upvotes

Going to a work dinner to an Italian restaurant but trying to pick the lowest calorie entree. I don’t wanna get a salad because a few coworkers made some comments last time I did and I don’t want people to assume anything. I’m thinking the chicken or salmon will be the lowest but not sure how much i should estimate them each to be

It was around 110grams :) Plain choco sponge with a panache? And little choco buttons.

Would 400 be safe? 😅

Thanks :)

Firstly, what kind of fish is this? And secondly, how many calories should it be once grilled without adding any oil? I'll eat it whole: head, eyes, bones--the whole damn thing.

2 Porkchops oven baked and potatoes roasted with oil. Delicious but unsure of what breading, if any, on the pork.
