    Okay, so you are only eating about 1200 calories, including carbs, not 1200 plus your carbs.

    Now seeing this I would say you are not eating enough fat and protein. I would suggest using the carbs on MFP as a max and the fat and protein as minimums. You should also be eating most of your exercise calories back.

    How can increase my proteins?

    Greek yogurt, meat, eggs, milk, cheese. Plus add healthy fats like nut and avocados.

    Beans, lentils, nuts, quinoa, protein powder, greek yogurt (are you vegetarian or vegan?)

    Is there a nutrition class offered in your local community courses or at your local college?

    I don't want to be rude, but you sound very confused about basic nutritional information. It might help to take a class if there is one available.

    Is it ok I eat 1156 calories but get my other calories from carbs. I'm not starving myself the meals I ate are low calories. Carbs keep me full. Hope I don't feel hungry when I ate 1156 calories. Carbs contains 4 calories so I calculated my calories and carbs 4 x 200 (the amounts of carbs I ate) = 800
    1156 calories I ate 1156+800= 1956. So I'm eating 1956 cals a day I'm I right???

    Your questions about meat substitutes (such as veggie patties) have been answered again and again and again. Is there a language that you are more comfortable communicating in? Perhaps we have some users here who speak that language and will be able to direct you to sources that will help you meet your nutritional needs as a vegetarian.

    I've tried asking her before about a language barrier too. That got me nowhere.

    She started a thread towards the end of march asking about sauce for chicken.

    I tried, really tried to be generous with thinking that she's a young girl with a language barrier, but seeing the chicken thread?

    Yep, I remember those. I'm hoping if she is for real, she finds a way to get the help that she needs. But I am becoming doubtful this is real.
