hi I just decided to track my calories (thanks calkid for suggesting fitday) for the first time since I have time right now in the summer and I think something is messed up. I'm eating approximately 3700 calories per day, 167 grams of fat, 273 grams of carbohydrates, and 269 grams of protein. So i guess I'm kinda eating 40% fat, 30% carb, 30% protein.
This is my diet:
scrambled eggs (2 eggs), cream of wheat (1 bowl), small glass of chocalate milk
spaghetti (1 cup) and meatballs (3 like 4 oz meatballs)
3 slices of turkey on wheatbread, handful of baby carrots, handful of cashews
big glass whole milk, 1 slice turkey, apple
(about the same as spaghetti and meatballs...usually chicken and pasta or steak and potatoes...)
big glass 1% milk, big glass orange juice, 1 slice turkey
i'm just trying to think of what to add/subtract to get my diet better. I'm guessing get rid of whole and chocolate milk but what do i replace those calories from?
Thanks a lot for everyone who spares their time to read these posts and help people out,
Sean
