Scan the barcode on them. Or manually enter them. The calorie count is never going to be 100% accurate and it’s totally fine to give yourself some reasonable wiggle room.
I try and get the calories exact even if it means altering the weight but then I'm afraid it'll affect the nutritional value of the meal.
The barcode I actually haven't tried.
I'll try it when I make dinner.
Sometimes companies change their recipes year to year to an older recipe might not be as exact. There are so many factors to calories and metabolic rates that I wouldn’t worry about a 10-15% wiggle room unless a doctor has advised you to be overly cautious.
Ah, that makes sense.
I try my best to stick to 1200 and no more but it's difficult when there's such wiggle room.
I'll need to start using the barcode scanner. I forgot that was a free feature.

Calorie counts are not exact. They are estimates.
I know they're estimates but when it shows a 50 calorie difference on the app compared to what I've got, it's a little odd.

It’s close enough to work.
