Saw a deal on a package of frozen crab cakes and decided to try them, 310 calories for the bowl (lemmy.world)

The brand is Sea Cuisine, and though the crab cake was fine, I think I can make a better one for less than 220 calories.

Gotta roast those peas! Add some nutritional yeast and some thyme to the toss. Freaking awesome

1200 is not plenty.

Not for most people, but for a short-ish woman, my TDEE is only 1600 calories a day. Which means that at 1200, I'm losing less than a pound a week, which is a fairly moderate rate.

Also, my dinner would have been larger had I not been determined to fit in a 170 calorie beer 😝
