Is 800 calories of Carbs (200gram) + 100gram(400calories) Protein+ 100gram(90k calories) of good fats- is this well balanced diet?? That was I given by personal trainer to when I told him my goal, plus I have special exercise but I am not sure if this is well balanced diet that will keep me full and healthy??

Some of these numbers are wrong. 100 grams of fat would be 900 calories?0

I feel like all of these numbers are wrong.0

yesterday you ate a single chicken thigh for your dinner... and a total of 1000 calories for the day... eating 1900 calories will definitely be healthier and keep you fuller!0 -
Is this diet you were given to lose weight or maintain? So if you add up the calories (800+400+900) and then calculate the macros, you get: ~38%carbs, 19% Protein and 43% fat. I usually aim for more protein than fat but of course I'm not a "personal trainer".0

maybe the pt got confused with using 40/40/20!?0 -
It looks OK to me. You're aiming for 100 grams of protein, which is probably right for the workouts your trainer has you on. You're keeping your carbs at or under 200 grams, which is lower carb, but still not in real low carb territory, And you're getting the rest of your needed calories from fats, which are a great energy source. This kind of diet should give you plenty of energy. It's very similar to the ratios I've been running the past year or so (20% carbs, 30% protein, 50% fat) which has worked out great for me.0

these are exact number i have been given.0

800+400+90(good fats) not 900, ive given my age-30yrs plus height 156cm plus weight 50kilos.
I want to lose fat from arms, hips and tummy and in general get toned up( its not much about losing weight) I dont care really what scale says as long as I don't have fat in the areas above.
Ps. its 4weeks diet only, then I will be given new one with I think 1600-1700 to keep healthy etc.0 -
Looks alright. Adds up to 2100 cals/day which is sufficient to fuel a proper training schedule.
Of course it all depends on your training schedule and your goals, doesn't it? So what are they?
ETA: just read your edit. 90 cals of fat would be only 10g fat/day. I'm not sure that's sufficient to maintain healthy hormone levels?0 -
Anyon knows how much protein is in egg white-lets say 2 medium?0

What kind of workouts are you doing? What's your current weight/height/body fat %? If you're working with a personal trainer and doing any type of intense workouts, 1290 calories seems low to me. Do you know your current BMR?0

90 calories from fat is FAR too low...
not sure what else you're ranting about, but only eating 90 calories worth of fat is a really bad idea. i would love to know your PTs reason for that?0 -
Is 800 calories of Carbs (200gram) + 100gram(400calories) Protein+ 100gram(90k calories) of good fats
and actually what you wrote is 100g (90k calories) which is why people asked for clarification...0 -
And this is why PTs should not be handing out diet plans.....which they are not licensed or certified in any way to do.0

No one is laughing at you..
The database is available on the phone app. 99.999% of people have the app on here and are able to access the database. I'm not sure why you're not able to.
90k calories = what? 90,000? 100g of fats = 900 calories not 90k. fats = fats. doesn't matter if they are good or bad. 10g of fat is not okay,0 -
Try to not feel like we're making fun of you. We're trying to understand, because it doesn't make sense to us.
90 calories worth of fat is 10 grams. This is approximately the same amount of fat in 2 ounces of avocado. If this is accurate, this diet has you eating only 7% of your calories from fat. If you value your hormone/endocrine/nerve health, I urge you to eat more fat than this.0 -
30yrs plus height 156cm plus weight 50kilos. -No clue about body fat etc. BMI shows i am healthy range but i do have fat in arms, tummy and muffin tops(hips) . I am fine with rest. I do exercise- but dont know how to add them-today manage first time to add some.
I write before not the weight is my goal- only indicative goal- its more to tonne up- then only goal- as fast as I can. So i have 4 weeks to lose that fat from this body parts- then i will be given new diet- about 1600-1800 or higher not sure. To get nice shape and stay healthy.
I dont want bulky-body builder shape or 6pack on tummy. Just loose what hanging out. Im in general slim ,petite person but those arms and tummy and hips are visible- i don't like it and time to change it! Thats all.
TavistockToad- you laughed saying something about you wanting eat the fat- im not sure if you laugh at me at the post-or what? I dont know if 90calories or gram are good, bar etc.- literally no clue! please be nicer- i was given this- i believe in your knowledge guys-so thats why I am asking.0 -
thats what I have been given-exactly these numbers.. i dont know if he made mistake?? but exactly as above Ive been told to eat...Is 800 calories of Carbs (200gram) + 100gram(400calories) Protein+ 100gram(90k calories) of good fats
and actually what you wrote is 100g (90k calories) which is why people asked for clarification...0 -

You will lose fat with a calorie deficit. You can most certainly be eating a lot more (and more fat) to achieve this goal. I would not listen to the person who gave you these numbers.0 -
No one is laughing at you. What they are doing is good natured asking for clarification of what you wrote. Lighten up.
Your PT is not a nutritionist, and probably has no training in it. What you've been given is off base for healthy eating, and so vague as to be pretty useless. And that's certainly not something to laugh about.0 -

Something like 15% of the calories in spinach come from fat. If you ate spinach and nothing else all day, you'd be getting too much fat -- according to this "diet". This is simply not enough fat for a young woman to plan on eating. I'm not a doctor. But if you were my sister, I'd urge you to eat more fat than this.0 -
