I am cutting down my calories at the moment to lose a bit of weight. I had an apple last night for a snack and when I tracked it on my calorie tracker app I realised it was pretty much the same amount of calories as a small chocolate bar. Does this mean that if I’m trying to lose weight I might as well be having the chocolate bar instead?
Obviously there is more fat in a chocolate bar but when I Googled it it said you should focus on calories more than fat

For weight loss in particular some foods make you feel full longer and some foods make you hungry fasts. That’s due to the glycemic index. You see, the higher the food is on that scale, the more it tends to raise your blood sugar rapidly. And when your higher goes up too fast and too high, it crashes with the same intensity and that makes humans hungry. However these things can vary person to person. Some people won’t be affected by it as much and some will. Notice how hungry you feel after eating a 300 cal steak vs 300 cal sweet.
