I survived Mexican food!!
I ate a light breakfast and lunch and had a good workout. I could have splurged a little...but instead I chose the shrimp caesar salad with the dressing on the side (I did the fork dip thing), but the salad was SO good. It had romaine lettuce, black beans, avocado, a little low fat cojita cheese and shrimp. Yummy!!! I also…

Can I go over my fat cals just a little?
I have so many calories left, carbs left, some protein, but little "fat". Can I go over it a bit? I exercised and did everything I needed to do.
-
????? Can you answer ??????
I just read that one of you couldn't use up all your calories. That you were already full and didn't want any more... Another of you said you MUST eat that amt of calories as MFP suggests or your body won't burn calories/lose weight? So... I thought it was a GOOD thing if I didn't use up all my calories???? I guess I am…

protein content
Does going over the amount of protein that mfp recommends, cause any adverse affects? Or is it O.K?

Good carbs and bad carbs
I have a hard time keeping my carb intake down because I usually either have rice, pasta, or potatoes with my dinner. I noticed potatoes are really high in calories and carbs, are the carbs in potatoes considered good carbs or bad carbs? And are they better than the carbs found in rice and pasta?

what's with the sugar recommendations?
I started tracking sugar as one of my four nutrients, and have been really puzzled by the recommended limits. I just had a perfectly reasonable breakfast of foods that have no added sugar (except maybe the bread, which is not much), and already I am 6 grams over my recommended sugar intake for the whole day. :noway: What…

Chips and Diet Coke - Please Help!
This is my weakness. I'm not a sugar person. I literally lived off this. Diet coke to me is like smoking is to smokers. It's not the caffeine either, because I prefer decaf diet coke. If I follow my diet/exercise plan, can I still have diet coke and "some" chips at night. I like the baked chips....but please don't ask me…

Edy's Fruit Bars
:love: I've just discovered a wonderful thing. Edy's Fruit Bars. They have very little of anything in it. 60 cal per single bar and no fat. Small amount of sugar...and 25% Vit. C. They are amazing. I don't recommend the lime....but the berry ones are simply amazing! Great for that sweet tooth! :drinker:
