Question One more question

Hi folks -

One more question....

Today, I cut out deli meat and cheese and increased my veggie count.

According to Fitday, I'm low on calories....I've been averaging 2270 calories a day, and today I'm down to 1437 calories!!! Also, my carb count is alot lower than previous days....17g, minus 6g fiber, leaving only 11g net carb!

I know the general rule is 10-12x your weight.....and at 1437, I'm definitely below that guideline. Should I "force" myself to eat something high in calories to meet 10x my weight? I'm feeling very full right now, and since my appetite is steadily decreasing, I wonder if there might be more days where I'm "low" on my calories.

What is the best thing to do if you're low in calories and carb count?

Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Anshim
