E-PHIT: Dietician Visit 3
Good morning everyone and happy Friday!! I had a really nice visit with Whitney this morning. I think the problem last time was that both of us were sick and out of it and we are both quiet...so neither of us really had the energy or cared to talk. Today was much more pleasant and I enjoyed it. : )
So...there are some goals that they have us working on that they would like to get us into the range of. They are as follows:
Goal:
~2039 Calories Daily (as estimated from the Harris Benedict Equation for Women) -- that's for you Charlie and mustangcandi
18% intake from protein
30% intake from fat
52% intake from carbohydrate
Now here are my numbers:
Week 1
1938 Calories
9.8% from protein
42.6% from fat
47.5% from carbohydrates
Week 2
1809 Calories
11.5% from protein
26.3% from fat
62.0% from carbohydrates
So...as you can see from the numbers, I am getting closer at least (without even trying in those two weeks). I am looking forward to seeing what my numbers are for this week because I feel like I really made some changes that will show up here. Let's hope. *crosses fingers.
I also got a tidbit from Rachelle that at my next meeting with Whitney, she wants her to talk to me about ways to increase my protein intake. So, I'm all for that! I'll take all the advice I can get! : ) I know my eating lifestyle isn't the healthiest but even the small changes I made this week have had me feeling better about what I'm able to write down that I'm eating.
As always, I will keep you guys posted. Thanks for reading!!
