1200 cals is far too low!!
^^^This^^^ If you are exercising a lot, your net calories could be WAY too low if you have your macros set at 1200 cals. Essential fatty acids are exactly that---essential. A sufficient amount of fat is necessary to keep bodily processes going. And the more active you are, the more you need.0 -
I've now changed my goal to 1lb per week which has permitted a total of 1340 calories for non-exercising days and 1803 for exercising days which is definitely much more achievable than the original 1200. Thanks for your advice
I am finding myself dramatically short in fat each day but it will probably take a while to get into the swing of things and purchase less calorie/higher fat foods.0
