Calories and Macros

Hi all,

I have a question for all you vegan and vegetarian keto-ers I'm consistently under my caloric intake (like 800 Cal's per day rather than 1000-1200), but I'm not hungry at the end of the day... How bad is this? I do have 50lbs to loose so I'm definitely not in the anorexic category...

Thanks!

I'm having the same thing happen! I am only in the first week though. It's a bit confusing because I'm so used to eating 6 small meals a day on previous diets. I think a lot of what I've been reading is that it's important to listen to your body. Obviously you don't want to starve yourself but you don't want to make yourself eat if you aren't hungry!

Check out Dr. Jason Fung's work (youtube, blog, books). He has a lot of info on Keto as well as intermittent fasting. He encourages skipping meals if you aren't hungry and explains why snacking all day actually sabotages weight loss.
