HI, I eat 6 times a day and am coming in short on my eating. I'm thinking about doubling my protein shakes. Are you doing anything like that?0

I am a registered dietitian, and I would strongly recommend not going below 1200 kcal/day. If you do not consume adequate kcals daily, you risk breaking down your own body tissue, including any muscle tissue you might be gaining from exercising. Muscle is a very metabolically active tissue- thus, you don't want to lose it! Let me know if you have more specific questions about eating, and I will try to help you out!

Hello Liz, I am eating at least 1500 a day but i burn on average 600-800 cals 4 times a week at the gym, i also study dance so i have 4 hours of dancing a week on top of the gym, i have now only just begun to eat more as i think my problem is my metabolism mostly..
thank you!0
