Are the calories on the Wicked Sister protein puddings accurate?

https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/169531/wicked-sister-high-protein-banana-pudding

The banana Wicked Sister protein pudding says it's 167cal for a 170g pot, but the 3rd ingredient is cream and it definitely tastes very rich (tastes a lot like cream).

Is it possible that the nutrition info is wrong?

Best tasting chocolate protein powder (to rival Rokeby Protein)

Hi all,

I've been buying pre-made Rokeby Protein Smoothies (Dutch chocolate) from Woolworths. They taste amazing but are quite expensive and have fairly high sugar content.

I'm looking for a chocolate protein powder that tastes nice so I can save some cash.

What are your best recommendations?

Yeah I know Rokby probably tastes good because it's full of sugar.

Sugar per day?

Hey guys.

So I have been on a calorie deficit for around 56 days or so. I am eating 1.4k calories a day and it hasn’t been horrible. Gone from 90 to 81kg but that was my previous cut.

Haven’t managed to lose anything in my current 56 days I believe, only started weighing myself daily very recently although I understand we fluctuate.

Anyway to the point, I aim for 130g of protein because I’m trying to put on muscle and lose body fat. I just recently started to consider that sugar may be my issue. I eat 1,400 calories a day but upon checking my tracking, easily hit 60-80g of sugar per day due to snacks I have since I’m out a lot.

I decided I would try to stick to 35g a day. Can I get some guidance on the importance of sugar when trying to lose body fat and if this will potentially make a difference? I know all bodies are different but just needed some opinions.

Thanks!

Edit: I weight lift about 3-5 times a week and only started doing cardio super recently, either stairs for 220 calories burnt (22 minutes roughly at level 3) or skip roping for 20 minutes.

Sourdough

Hey!

I've heard sourdough, the 'real' kind, is the healthiest bread and really good for you.

However, i've researched and hear that the one found at your classic woolies, coles, and bakers delight is not 'real', and was wondering if anyone had recommendations where i can get the proper one of just flour, salt, n water. thanks :)

Best tasting protein powder

Hi 1200 Cal Pals

Outsourcing which is the best tasting protein powder on the market.

I'm into strength training so whey protein isolate would be good if possible for bioavailability. I don't mind paying a bit more for a premium product but since I will be using it often, I want it to taste as good as possible. If I don't like the taste or texture then it tends to just sit in the cupboard gathering dust.

GYG calories question

So on the nutritional info for the GYG menu, the salads are listed as ‘with chipotle mayo’. At the bottom it has the cals of the mayo on its own which is 124 cals for a serve. Could I assume that if I ordered a salad with no mayo, I could subtract 124 calories from the salad total and 13.6grams from the fat? It’s just that 182 cals seems so little for a grilled chicken salad but idk. I know it’s just an estimate anyway but yeah, would you guys track a chicken salad no mayo as 182, a ground beef salad with no mayo as 228 and so on?

Thanks! :) Just wanted to get some others opinions

Protein powder and stomach pain

Hi all! Has anyone had any luck switching from whey protein to vegan? I’m not lactose intolerant but for some reason protein powder is giving me the worst stomach aches, could possibly be the sweeteners used in the flavoured ones but just looking for any gentle on the stomach protein powders. I would go without but I’m pretty much vegetarian so need protein powder to hit my target.

Maggi noodles calories confusing?

It says on the website calories per 100g is 360 kJ. The single package contains 60 g NET of dry noodle but the calories per serving somehow became 360 gr with 1300 kJ for a single package? Is the 360 kJ/100 gr referring to weight of noodles once it's added with water?

I'm looking for a kombucha without sweeteners

I personally hate the taste of sweeteners and sugar alternatives. I prefer things to just be sugar free.

Years ago Woolies had Mojo kombucha which I loved. But then Coca-cola bought it out and killed it. I've been on the look out for easy to buy kombucha ever since - but for some reason all the ones at the grocery store add sweeteners to their mixes. Or the ones I like seem to stop being stocked.

I'm hoping someone might have ideas about some similar to the Mojo ones. I'd probably have to ship them to my house, because I'm regionally located. But maybe there's a hidden gem out there.

I did try making kombucha at home, but I kept stressing myself out that I was going to give myself food poisoning. Our climate also isn't great for it.

Thoughts on optimum amino energy

I’m looking for a more cost effective alternative to energy drinks as I can’t stand coffee and this looked pretty decent plus is on special at chemist warehouse rn.

Has anyone tried it? Or have any other brand recommendations?
