HELP! Am I eating right?




 I have tons of questions and I can only read so much on the internet before it all becomes conflicting. I am eating a lot differently since I started this journey. Needless to say my body is not adjusting to the shock I have put on it. But I need some opinions from some of my friends/acquaintances/health-nuts/whoever! Is what I'm eating enough, not enough, just right? What should I include more of, take away, keep the same? I probably should instill a dietician somewhere in my journey, because I'm not going to be able to do this by myself for a long period of time before food is going to start getting old. If anyone can please give me some information/guidance I would greatly appreciate it!!

Calories are set for 1500, but because of exercise, it went up to 2028? I don't get that either!

  1. Hi Stephanie! I'm not an expert in any way, but it looks to me like you're doing really well. I would probably add some protein snacks in, just because I tend to get really hungry and then go head first into a hot fudge sundae, and making sure I feel full with something between meals helps me a lot. Also, I wouldn't worry too much about getting it "right." As long as you are making healthy choices, it doesn't matter if you do everything the way the nutritionists say. Also, making small changes tends to last longer and be easier to maintain. So if you're doing well with what you're doing, just stick with it! Well done, by the way!

  2. Hi, darlin! I'll give my two cents if you don't mind. :) I'd stick to what the total says and keep at your 1500 goal. At the end of the day you want a deficit, so I'm not sure why it would add those calories back in.
