if i were to saute some veggies or something in a pan using some olive oil, should i count that towards my calories? I know it seems like something stupid, but I'm cutting right now and I have to make sure everything is accurate

Well, yeah. If you put in a tablespoon, add 150 cals or whatever it is to your total.

okay. I just wasn't sure because normally not all of it goes into the food ya know. some of it is still in the pan. thanks though

OH MY!! is that for virgin olive oil?

Hahahahaha
have you tried to sautee eggplant-- I can use almost 1/2 th bottle on that stuff-- but it is yummy!

yeah that's pretty much for any oil. that's my point though, you need to use a lot but you don't really eat it all

Try to estimate how much of it you actually consume

...or you could just lick the pan after you cook and count it all

If you always count it the same way then your calorie count will be consistent even if it isn't 100% accurate.

say I put in a tablespoon, I just count a tablespoon. Problem solved

haha, OR maybe I could drain ALL the food after I cook it and then not count it at all lol

well you could pat it dry with a papertowel

haha, guess I'll just count it. How's canola oil? What other oils are good besides EVOO? peanut, coconut, etc....

You could measure how much is left in the pan afterwards and subtract. Then factor the nutrients based on that amount.
