Hi all...
I NEVER thought I'd be saying this, but I need suggestions to UP my calories. Wow.... doesn't that sound funny?
Anyway, if I am supposed to keep my calories at 10 - 12 x my body weight, I'm failing miserably. I am usually at around 2500 with 68% fat, 3% carbs and 29% protien.
I haven't lost a pound yet and I've been at this for approx 11 weeks or so.
My basal body maintenance, lifestyle and excercise add up to about 3800 calories. Gee, if a calorie were just a calorie, I'd be losing weight like crazy, wouldn't I?
So I'm looking for suggestions from everyone about how to get in approx 3800 - 4000 calories a day and making sure my %ages stay the same or maybe even get a bit better.
What are your favorite treats that help get your calories where you want to be? I already butter everything I can... try to use dressing and mayo and olive oil as much as I can. But you just can't put those things on EVERYTHING...
Thanks in advance, you guys are the greatest here. Its wonderful to have such incredible support!!
