Hi All! I started calorie counting last Sunday and am doing well!
I'm trying to stay within 1200 - 1400 calories a day. I've also started working out about 5-6 days a week. This is a WHOLE new lifestyle change for me.
So here are my questions:
I have done well averaging within my range every day but there have been days where I've eaten under 1200 and 2 days where I ate abour 1500ish. Will this all even out in the long run?
I'm also watching my carbs and trying to get them from fruit, veg and beans. But if I do have carbs it's a spouted form ( think Ezeikial 4:9 bread) Do y'all think I should have 1 serving of grain carb per meal or is it ok to only try to eat one grain serving per day?
I want to do this well and right. I've also included a sample of a couple days worth of food. Would someone look at it and give me some feedback?
Thanks
Kate
