I eat a fiber one bar or a 100cal low fat fudge bar from kroger

I like to skip breakfast because it saves the calories for later in the day when I am most likely to get hungry. I typically eat 600 calories for lunch and around 600 for dinner. My goal calorie intake is 2000 right now so I have plenty left over for a snack here and there. It has been working for me. I eat a fiber one bar…

I was worried at first because I was only hitting half my goal for carbs and calorie intake. But I was hitting my goal for protein and fat intake. I never went over on protein and fat. I am feeling excellent and full of energy. Most of the carbs I was getting was from veggies, fruit as well as some from the whole wheat…

Here is my day 2 total. Totals Calories =1,920 Carbs=155 Fat=88 Protein=104 Sodium=2,635 Sugar=57 The daily goal the app set for me Calories =2,710 Carbs=373 Fat=90 Protein=102 Sodium=2,500 Sugar=54 I don't want my body going into starvation mode but I feel good and well fed.

Ok what is BMR, TDEE and MFP

Thanks everyone for all your help. I am glad I joined this site. :)

I think you are right. It is not just the amount of food I was eating but the quality of the food I was eating as well. I'm looking at all the stuff I like to eat and I am shocked at how bad it is for me. Looks like I am going to be cleaning the fridge out tonight...

I would say I am more conscious of what I am eating. I have cut out all sugar drinks like coke and sweet tea. I was going to eat a small pot pie for lunch until I checked the calorie count and found it had 1500 calories. So ya I think your right. I am eating the same amount but watching what I am eating at the same time.
