Yes but that assumes that you eat the exact same ratio and quantity as your 4 year old child, for example.

Sometimes it feels like my 4 year old eats more than me. The ratios are definitely different though.

It isn’t telling you how many calories you consumed. It’s just insights into the nutrition from the food you consume.
