Good calories?

[charley27 164]

I don't get enough calories in therefore I'm not losing. What are ideas of some good calories? I'm only getting in 400 ish.

chicken, fish, eggs, Beans, cheese, nuts, cottage cheese, yogurt, veggies, Protein Shakes, beef... Look for high Protein low carb. I don't think you have had a slow loss but it's not healthy to remain at such low calories (and assuming low protein).

You can add whole fat cheese to lots of stuff: eggs, chicken, refried Beans.

How far out are you? I've lost weight consistently, except for the 3rd-4th week stall, and at 7 weeks out I'm only at 500-600 calories a day. I found as long as i met my Protein and Water I lost weight.

I'm 3 months out. I can't have beef for another 3 months. I can't tolerate eggs anymore.

Yea 400 calories seems really low for that far out. Are u meeting your goal for Protein and fluids?

I'm 3 months out too and I easily get over 800 calories a day. Sometimes up over 1000. I am terrified of destroying my metabolism and being stuck on an extremely low calorie diet forever.

My staples are lots of cheese, 4% cottage cheese, chicken + turkey (grilled, roasted, baked, ground), sashimi, yogurt, lamb, perky turkey Jerky. Whole milk in my coffee.

One of my lunch favorites is a breadless crab or shrimp melt. I put a pile of the good stuff on a plate and hit it with lemon juice and old bay seasoning. Nuke for 30 seconds and add a slice of havarti cheese. Dang good food!
