That's... not very much food. You're averaging like 1300 calories a day.

Maybe if you're very short, that's appropriate, but for most people their bodies will be going into starvation mode, making it hard to lose fat, hard to concentrate, and hard to sustain the diet.

In general, adult women really aren't supposed to eat fewer than 1600 a day.

tbh, i am trying to count carbs for every meal.

Carbohydrates: x grams

on the label for the serving size.

My dr said i should go for 45grams or less per meal.

so pasta is a killer. I have been using zucchini to make spiralized pasta and it is NO CARBS.. I still have pasta sauce and meat.

My dr said it is a better way to lose weight, rather than trying to count calories.

Until the last day it looks like about 1300 cal/day. That's very reasonable for weight loss. The last day is about 1600 calories, which is about what I ate when I was trying to slim down. It worked.

160 X 2 480 X 3? For me
120 X 2 360 x 3 for you?

[EaterPeter]

Or use some app like healthify me

[EaterPeter]

That should give you better numbers

[EaterPeter]

Cheat meal probably every other week

just eat and enjoy your life never mind counting calories that's no way to live

[Guy13]

YEs... no carbs of any kind.

[anonbrunette99]

Keto? You know how hard that is!

[Guy13]

Okay 1900 calories, gym 300 calories, home clean walk stairs pull weeds mow... NO COUCH. Metabolism must burn and it you do it right it will burn during sleep !!!

No beer, frozen foods, snack, and Carbohydrate vegetable food aisles.

HIIT 2 x week 30 second sprint, 1 minute rest for 15 minutes. circuit training for cardio not heavy weights. metabolism

[Guy13]

Double proteins with meats and beans !!!

If you only drink water, yes

[anonbrunette99]

I only drink water except from coffee with sweetners and oat milk in the morning. You mean it’s fine or no?

[TallAnon]

Oat milk and sweeteners have calories too, don't forget those, seems like it would be ok though.
