You should be able to get most of your fiber from vegetables and fruit. Also, brown rice, quinoa, oatmeal, are good sources. So, If you are on a 2000 calorie/ day, that would mean: 2000cal x 30% carbs = 600 calories/ 4 = 150 grams of carbs 2000cal x 20% fats = 400 calories/ 9 = 44 grams of fat 2000cal x 50% protein = 1000…

Also, body fat % is a great number to…

I eat every two hours. It is the best way to speed up your metabolism and I never get that "starving" feeling. So lunch isn't usually huge. I have no time in the mornings, so what I do is make a big meal on Sunday that will usually serve as my lunch for that week, either a bunch of chicken to put on salads, or maybe some…

Do your research. This is not a "natural" or healthy product. I am in stage two of kidney failure because of taking Oxyelite Pro for 6 weeks. I'm not saying this will happen to everyone, but I'm not the first person. I wouldn't take it. I'm stuck eating a low protein, low phosphorus, low potassium diet the rest of my life…
