Just getting started. Too many calories?
Just wondering if there's such a thing as too many? I'm 6'3" and weigh 138#. From what I gather I'm getting borderline dangerously thin due to poor eating habits. I've added a breakfast to my day and just started counting calories. Previously I was consuming 12-2000 a day and the last two days I'm averaging about 4000.
