How to Use a Food Scale to Track Macros

How to Use a Food Scale to Track Macros

In this video, we go over how to use a food scale, specifically for tracking macros with MyFitnessPal.

If you want to see success with your weight loss or weight gain journey, you need to start tracking macros with a food scale. It's the only way to make sure you're hitting your calorie and macronutrient goal.

This process is called IIFYM or Flexible Dieting. It's what I've been doing for the past 6 years and why I recommend it to anyone who is serious about losing weight or whatever someone's fitness goal is.

Learning how to use a food scale is vital for your success.

Trust me, I know what it's like at the start. It's frustrating, difficult, and sometimes, annoying.

This video is to help those who are just starting with using a food scale.

I hope this video helps.

NICE! I dont use an App. so, Cant i just read the ingredients from the package, ie, 100 grams of protein in 16 ounces of (whatever), and weigh it and adjust from there?

How can I know macros of a potato if I dont have a barcode. We buy organic foods like directly from a farm

This is a random question and I’m embarrassed to ask but do you weigh fruit like oranges and bananas with skin or without .
