Should I eat more fat? Or am I ok?
So my MFP meal plan says that I should get about 47g of fat per day and lately I've consistently been hitting under - about 30-35g per day. I've been eating very healthy, but in my zeal, I'm wondering if my proteins and cooking methods are too lean (skinless chicken breast, white fish, beans, etc). Is the level of fat I'm…

Chaagy's Motivation Journal

This time, all the way!!
Good to be back MFP! I was 230lbs about 2 years ago, and joined MFP, lost 25lbs, but then fell off the wagon and gained 15lbs back. So now, I'm back, and we're going to really do this, and keep doing it, and keep doing it, and keep doing it, until I reach my goal of 170lbs. Feel free to add me. I'm going to have a…
