I'm supposed to be eating around 1700 calories per day. I've finished lunch and my daily total is at 1000 so I've 700 left for dinner, however, according to my macros, I've maxed out on carbs, sugar, protein and fat. What should I have for dinner - I was going to have a stir fry with heaps of veges and some steak... Any suggestions?

    Hi, If you open your diary people could make some suggestions.

    There's something entered incorrectly on the Mary's Chocolate Custard. If something really had 179 grams of carbs, 30 grams of fat, and 46 grams of protein, it would have WAY more than 326 calories. I'd check the NI on that and then see where your macros are :)

    Bingo. Thanks. Just recounted the carbs - only 25!

    is that a recipe you entered? If so you just counted the number of servings incorrectly.

    I must have been tired when I worked it out - everything was off. Only upside is I've been counting over 300 calories for something that is nearly a third that. Accidental diet anyone?
