Tracking Tip

Olive oil is healthy — but at 119 cal per tablespoon, it's one of the most calorie-dense things in your kitchen. A 'drizzle' is usually 2-3 tablespoons (240-360 cal). For cooking, measure it or use a spray bottle.

Common Questions

Should I avoid olive oil when trying to lose weight?

Don't avoid it — it's heart-healthy. But measure it. Most people dramatically underestimate how much they pour. A spray bottle or measured tablespoon keeps you honest. The calories in 'a drizzle' can exceed the calories in the food you're drizzling it on.
