I just started IIFYM TODAY! I'm already over on carbs by 18 grams... Any advice on this? What do you typically eat for lunch and dinner?

  • Welcome aboard,

    Fish,Chicken , Beef , Eggs , turkey , Lamb, All of these options are good for Lunch and dinner as Main source of Protein, Now for carbs you can choose from a lot of options that you would have to choose from.

    what was your macros ??
  • I eat a turkey sandwich on 45 cal bread for lunch. i typically eat more fat in the morning like eggs and cheese sometimes bacon… i like to save most of my carbs for dinner and dessert
