Cada número de esta página (objetivos de calorías, reparto de macros y cualquier plan de comidas sugerido) se obtiene con fórmulas (Mifflin-St Jeor para la tasa metabólica basal, multiplicadores de actividad estándar) o, en los planes de comidas generados por IA, con un modelo de lenguaje que aplica esas mismas fórmulas. En las páginas de planes de comidas, la cifra de carbohidratos de cada comida se calcula por diferencia: calorías totales menos las calorías de proteínas y grasas, dividido entre 4. No se mide ni se estima por separado, así que léela como un balance aritmético y no como un análisis nutricional independiente del plato. Nada de esto es asesoramiento médico o nutricional individualizado, y nada ha sido revisado por un dietista titulado, un médico u otro profesional sanitario con licencia.
Pregunta a tu médico o a un dietista titulado qué es lo adecuado para ti antes de empezar una dieta nueva, sobre todo si estás embarazada o en periodo de lactancia, tienes una enfermedad diagnosticada, tomas medicación con receta o has tenido trastornos de la conducta alimentaria. Si tienes una enfermedad renal u otra afección médica, consulta con tu profesional sanitario antes de aumentar la proteína.
Mealyno nunca recomienda un objetivo de calorías por debajo de tu tasa metabólica basal (BMR) calculada, la energía mínima que necesita tu cuerpo en reposo completo. Incluso el ajuste de pérdida de peso más agresivo se limita a ese mínimo.
Las estimaciones de calorías y de BMR usan la ecuación de Mifflin-St Jeor (Mifflin MD, St Jeor ST, et al. Am J Clin Nutr. 1990).

Syrnyky are a favourite Ukrainian breakfast made from cottage cheese. They are high in protein, but frying in oil and serving with sour cream and jam makes them more caloric than they look.
About this dish: Syrnyky (cottage cheese pancakes)
Syrnyky are the breakfast many Ukrainians grew up on: golden and slightly crisp outside, soft inside. The cheese should be dry and crumbly so the mixture holds its shape with little flour; a wet curd forces more flour and makes the pancakes dense and rubbery. Recipes differ in sugar, in raisins, and in whether a spoon of semolina goes in.
Syrnyky are high in protein, about 20 g in three (150 g), but frying makes them more caloric than they look. By the table that portion is about 335 kcal, and most of its fat comes from the pan: each pancake takes up a few grams of oil, which is 25-45 kcal. A spoon of sour cream with jam easily adds another 80-100 kcal, and the breakfast approaches 450 kcal without feeling heavy.
To lighten them, bake on parchment or fry in a non-stick pan with a drop of oil, use a 5% curd and cut the sugar. Baked syrnyky are roughly a quarter lighter than fried ones. To lift protein, swap some of the flour for oat bran and serve with yogurt and berries instead of sour cream and jam: the portion stays filling but carries less sugar.
Where the numbers come from
This dish has no single entry in the reference databases, so the values are calculated for a typical home recipe: ingredient shares multiplied by their composition in USDA and Ukrainian tables, including the fat that goes into the pan.
Pancakes of 5% cottage cheese with egg, flour and sugar, pan-fried in oil, without sour cream. Calories are derived from protein, fat and carbohydrate at 4, 9 and 4 kcal per gram, so the numbers on the page never contradict each other.
Your kitchen will differ: real calories for a dish like this are usually within ±15%, which for this portion means 285 to 385 kcal. See the Method page for sources and calculations. These are general guides, not medical advice.
What changes the calories
Frying: each pancake soaks up 3-5 g of oil, which is 25-45 kcal. Oven-baked syrnyky are roughly a quarter lighter. 30 g of sour cream adds another 48 kcal.
