    I’m not sure about that. The veggies are relatively low in calories. The chicken and dumplings would be really high in calories but that’s a very small amount.

    My best guess is this plate is less than 200-250 calories. We’re missing a lot of detail here though. It might not be three equal calorie meals per day. This might not be what your average person gets someone might have just pissed in their Wheaties.

    Assuming that’s one of three daily meals with equal calories, that’s probably about half the calories even someone in total lethargy would need to survive.

      I was assuming 5 meals a day, some fruit, yoghurt etc. Not an expert in any way though, I’m just always astonished at how little older people seem to eat (and need).
