  • I'm allowed 1630 calories/day. I try to limit myself to 300 - 400 each for breakfast and lunch which leaves me a reasonable amount for dinner with my wife who likes to plan a meal together and that's her "major" meal every day or we'll eat out at places that I can determine beforehand what I can eat there and stay within…
