0ari Posted June 30, 2022 Report Share Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) Do people include the TEF when calculating how many calories they should consume as per CR? Edited June 30, 2022 by 0ari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Allen Posted June 30, 2022 Report Share Posted June 30, 2022 No. I find calorie counting too imprecise and tedious to be very useful and thermic effect would be a small factor compared to larger issues such as the variability of non refined whole foods. I classify my foods as things that I can eat without concern for portion size such as salad greens versus things for which I aim for fairly consistent moderate portions such as nuts, fish, dairy, eggs and meats for which I might guesstimate calories to the nearest 100. I skip meals when needed to keep body fat in check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
