Any cooks/culinary students out there?

Hey everyone! I was wondering if there were any other kitchen employees or culinary students out there who could tell me how they manage their weight loss with mandatory tastings. Any success stories?

I’m a 5’1 female, 125 lbs, just starting my weight loss journey, looking to get to about 108. 2 days a week I attend culinary school and 3 days a week I work at a high end Italian restaurant. When I’m at school. we do a tasting at the end of the day where we are required to try everything that the class has made, even if it is only one bite. At work, I must taste EVERY batch of salad for seasoning - granted, it’s just a tiny floret of broccoli or a peace of lettuce, but all covered in EVOO or vinaigrette

It’s incredibly frustrating to not have any clue how many calories I’m consuming during these tastings, and I’m not sure it’s viable to just wait to eat for the day until I do them (on my feet all day whether at work or school, feel like I need a full balanced meal to get through). I’ll be working out at Orangetheory at least 5x a week.

TIA!
