What changes the calories
- Eating the skin adds noticeably more fat and calories than the meat-only figures shown here.
- Cooked turkey weighs less than raw because it loses water, so the same piece has more calories per gram after roasting than before.
- Butter, oil or glazes brushed on before roasting add their own calories on top of the meat.
- Deli-style or processed turkey breast can differ from home-roasted meat because of added ingredients like salt, sugar or binders.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh the turkey after cooking and log it as cooked, since these numbers are for roasted meat, not raw.
- Log skin, gravy, stuffing and any basting fat as separate entries so they don't get missed.
- In BerryFit, snap a photo of your plate to log the turkey, then adjust the portion to match the weight you measured.
