I think I'm struggling because I live in Asia so the 'western' food I can buy is quite limited. Houses don't have ovens either which makes it a bit of a challenge to cook a…

Cool....ok will try upping my calories a bit. Is there a way to make my profile accept 1400 otherwise I'll be going over every day which is not what I want to be seeing at the end of every day?
