Hi there - I have some real questions here.
I don't think I'm eating enough right now - I registered with
www.fitday.com and recorded everything I ate yesterday - only 700 calories which I know from experience can put your body into 'starvation mode'.
And what about fat grams - yesterday I had 28 fat grams (dressing on salad) which came in at 251 calories, 39 carb grams for 118 calories , and 74 protein grams for 295 calories. Doesn't sound healthy and I have this awful taste in my mouth.
At the moment I am so confused!
This is what I had -
B - 2 cups of coffee w/ 4 oz milk
L- 2 cups of mixed greens w/ a can of tuna, 1 1/2 tbsp of Renee's Caesar Vinagrette dressing
D- 2 cups of mixed greens w/ grilled skinless chicken breast, 1 1/2 tbsp of above dressing
(Dressing has 48 cals per tbsp, 4.9 g of fat, .5 g of carb
Snack - one small apple
herbal tea
Water - 8 glasses
Now - according to the PPP, I am supposed to have about 60 grams of protein per day (so I went over for the day), and between 20-30 grams of carbs (over again). So where am I supposed to get enough calories?
Sorry to sound like a doubter, but something just isn't right here.
Please can someone help?
