  • Meaning you're eating too many proteins and fats or not enough?

    I really don't believe going "over" on proteins is a bad thing. Proteins help build muscle. The fats is the problem. What types of food do you eat that have fats on them?

    Try to be really good about logging your meals everyday and then go back and look at what you're eating. You'll see some patterns. Eliminate some of the foods that have too much fat. Nuts and peanut butter are healthy fats but still shouldn't take in too much.

    Hi Michelle! I think that would be a great question for the General Diet and Weight Loss section. There are so many new people, it may get left at the weigh :laugh: side!:tongue: I have had my protein go over several times, was close on fat and carbs, so far I'm excited for my first weigh in tomorrow.:drinker:

    Hi Michelle, I'm also having the same problem. I'm in my first week too and I'm finding most of my protein is in the meat i'm eating, but a meal isn't a meal without meat. lol. So What to do? Good luck with the program. I'm already feeling better about my future.:wink:
