  • I personally feel like 1200 is too low for anyone. I shoot for 1400-1500 a day and don't eat back my exercise calories unless I hit it hard in the gym and am starving and even then I shoot for just eating back a few, maybe another hundred or so. The important thing to remember is to get good quality, high nutrition…

  • I go to our local warehouse store (Sam's Club) and buy the regular popcorn seasoning salt that they use commercially. Yes, it is high in sodium, but hey, if i'm giving up sugar and fat, I got to keep at least one vice and I do love popcorn. I air pop the corn and spray it with Pam (or generic cooking spray) while warm and…

  • Try to get in some whole grains and shoot for 25 grams of fiber everyday to insure your getting enough of the good carbs for your body and brain function. I eat protein at every meal or snack and shoot for anywhere from half to 3/4ish my desired body weight in protein grams (65g - 120g). That ensures you keep hard earned…

  • If you're eating at least the 1400 you should be okay even if you don't eat all the earned back calories. They're there if you need them, but don't feel pressure to make sure you get them all in. Remember, all calories are not created equal and you need 1400 of good solid nutrition. Make high nutrition and low junk choices…

  • I work as a personal trainer and never recommend anything lower than 1400 calories to any of my clients. Regardless of your goal and how quickly you'd like to loose weight, it needs to be in a safe manner especially if you are working out. Make sure in your goal's settings that you put your activity level to what you want…
