If you want to go lower carb, you need to go higher protein/fat:
Chicken with the skin
Steak
Cheese
Whole eggs (including deviled eggs, egg salad)
Full fat dairy (including cottage cheese, yogurt)
Peanut butter or other nut butters
Nuts
Avocado
Salmon
Olive oil
Basically a lot of stuff the rest of us would be really really happy to eat for you.
Salmon with a creamy dill sauce and asparagus wrapped in bacon then cooked in olive oil and spices? Sounds pretty awesome.
Now I need to go to lunch!0 -
So at one point you ate enough to gain enough weight which in turn has made you want to lose weight BUT you can't eat enough. Seems legit. That said, butter/oil (100 calories a tablespoon), avacados (seems like a couple hunder per), peanut butter (200 calories for 2 tablespoons).0

Oh gosh, you evil temptress of the night you. I wonder: if I starve myself for a week, could I eat this :laugh:0 -
More foods high in protein and fats as stated in the previous comments.0

i believe your exercise calories may be off as well.0

Hoping for an open diary soon. Then it'll be easier to offer suggestions. Because I'm not understanding the negative NET calories either. Are you saying you're burning over 1700 calories in exercise? (Or is that perhaps a bodybugg or something for the whole day's calorie burn and not just exercise)0

Peanut butter sammich and a glass of milk.
Ice cream.
BACON.
Seriously, why is this ever a question?0 -
Not sure what the problem is. When i have negative calories, that means i went over.
If you are looking to add calories, add nuts and maybe a sweet potato.0 -
My diary is open, now. I have a 4 year old that gets most of my attention throughout the day, therefore, I do get on much a couple of times a day. I appreciate the advice, critical and all.0

I have to agree, you must not be eating anywhere near 1,200 calories, or maybe you're actually underestimating the amount of calories you're eating? OR you're way overestimating the amount of calories you burn through a workout.
Understand, burning 1,000's of calories in a workout is nearly impossible. Even people assuming they're burning 500 calories is normally overestimated.. You'd be feeling extremely light head if you're actually into the negative calorie count. You really need to reevaluate yourself.0 -
What did you do to burn 954 calories?0
-
It is very unlikely that your burning nearly 1000 calories in 70 minutes (What you have logged today). I'd only take 50 of that, at most, as the truth.
Circuit training, general 10 188
Swimming laps, freestyle, light/moderate effort 30 494
Swimming, treading water, moderate effort 30 2820 -
I swim laps quite frequently with circuit training. I put in the time I did, and that is the "calories burned" that MFP gives me. I take it with a grain of salt, that is why I never eat back all my exercise calories.0
