    I'm at 1450. Chips and candy have never been exciting to me. So I don't eat much of those anyway. There are other things that occasional indulgences and I scatter them into my days here and there.

    I didn't have fortune cookies, just bourbon! The tales are true however.

    3000 including fast food and ice cream.

    *sigh*

    Sorry, I'm no help.

    Joff - you are just so useless my brother…:(

    I know...I know.

    And I'm old too, and everyone know that your metabolism increases as you get older...

    ...right?

    Right?

    I am right, right?

    I am on 1430 at the moment, so eat anywhere between 1400 and 1500. I do eat a little bit of junk/candy but for the most part it is healthy meals. Feel free to add me and take a look over my diary.

    I'm at 4200 calories a day and I'll be darned if I give up anything to get there... I may eat close to a couple pounds of chicken a day but I won't be going to bed without my ice cream...... :drinker: Best of Luck........

    OP - How your day might look will completely depend on your schedule and eating habits. Do you eat 3 meals a day or prefer several smaller meals? Snacks? We can give suggestions but need to know how many groups to break your macros into, etc.

    Why? What don't you get? Hitting 1500 a day without "chips or candy" is easy peazy. What about that are you struggling with?

    I set my calorie goal to 1600 but try to hit about 1500. That's without exercise, of course.

    I eat 1400-1600 depending on my workout. No fast food, ever. And the only candy is an occasional mint. :-)

    occasional mint? this is sad :(

    *puts down the vodka*

    I eat 1600+, but generally not completely clean eating, sorry. I made gingerbread cookies today - got to at least taste it!

    However, they are gluten & dairy-free - stupid allergies :grumble:

    I need another vodka (it's dinner time here people!).

    I've set my goal at 1500... But I do often fit in some chocolate or something to keep me sane. But you could replace that with like a banana or something?

    Add me if you like, I believe my diary is closed. I usually eat about 1400 cals a day, and very rarely sweets, candy, or fast food (I do love Wendy's salads occasionally). I did have cream cheese candies the past three days(:blushing:), but that's not the norm for me.

    From 1200 up to 1700 calories a day, differs a lot. No candy, no fast food, no crisps or anything else sweet, because I don't like it. But it's keto, which many people don't like....

    I was eating 1500 but now I eat up to 1800 as I'm pregnant. Feel free to check out my diary, but you might want to go back to August and before!
