SO you know that in 2 tbsp there are 100 calories.…
  • I don't drink coffee or tea so the only things I ever get from starbucks are hot chocolate or frappachino's. There is no way I can have a frappachino, they have WAY too many calories, sugars and fat.

Once it gets worse you will be glad that you have lots of memories to remeber…

  • You go into settings and then click change settings and then cutom settings. If you have a lot of carbs left over then i would suggest lowering the carbs by 5% and upping the protein by 5%.

BUT I burnt 700 calories in the gym yesterday and didn't eat my 'earned calories' in order to compensate for the extra 800 i had over the weekend.
