reflect Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Hi, I just started tracking my calories and protein on a program called Diet Power. My goals are to lose about 20 pds of fat and put on muscle. Sunday 2600 calories 400 carbs 110 protein Monday 2500 calories 233 carbs 110 protein Tuesday 2800 calories 300 carbs 100 protein Wednesday 1700 calories 250 carbs 65 protein Thursday 1700 calories 190 carbs 65 protein Friday 2900 calories 370 carbs 155 protein weight 197 pds So far, I learned I have to maintain about 2000 calories for BMR and then about 3000 calories total for exercise expenditure. I gained 1 pound last thursday for expending about 2000-2500 calories being active for 7 hours and my system stored some fat from the 1700 calories I ate.

Guest Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Its really hard to tell and you need to do this for months for it to be accurate...I eat about the same amount of calories every day but where I get it from really changes my digestion so my body flutters 8lbs regularly with the same amount of excersize too...water has alot to do with this too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reflect Posted August 26, 2006 Author Share Posted August 26, 2006 I am just learning this. I wanted to track my calories years ago and didnt have a program on PC for it. Now I have Diet Power. I checked out another program called FitDay. I wonder, if on some days, if i really ate a lot I could go over 3000 calories. Other days I am not hungry and around 9pm am still at 1500 and decide to eat around midnight.

Guest Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Sometimes its good to eat a little if your not hungy anyway...maybe not a meal but a snack a few hours before bed may keep you from eating before bed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reflect Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 Sometimes, I eat a lot before going to sleep, so i dont wake up at 3am feeling hungry.

Ravi Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 your calories seem to be fluctuating quite a bit. Are you trying to maintain a certain number of calories per day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reflect Posted November 1, 2006 Author Share Posted November 1, 2006 I just eat when I am hungry. I try to keep it about 2000-3000 calories a day. My caloric energy expenditure is from about 900 to 2000 calories per day. Bodyweight188 pounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
