In reply to Marian Stockdale. Hi Marian, It's better to split your protein requirements over the day, so if you are aiming for 230g of cooked protein per day, you could do 115g in two meals throughout the day.

I am totally confused !! if I am suppose to eat 77 protein per day and this equates to 231 g cooked meat – then I’m lost. If i eat a meal of 200g does that equate to around 48g protein??
then i can eat an extra 29gr protein per day?

Hi there, It sounds like you need to work on your metabolism. Increasing your metabolism has many advantages, and chronic dieting can severely limit how much energy your body is putting out on a daily basis.

I am having so much trouble and no matter how hard I try (which is very hard 95 % of the time) keeping my Macro’s straight within a couple % points, I am not losing weight. And to top it off I’m only eating about 1000 or less cals a day. I don’t get it. I’ve been doing this for almost 1 year.

I’m finally getting the gist of ‘going keto’ …
Thank you so very much.

In reply to Frankie Surall. You have to redefine success. I wouldn't try get back into doing exactly what you were doing prior to the pandemic, instead, just get 10% better each week from where you are right now.

Thanks for the information. Your post suggestions were a great help to me. I have tried keto and did well on it. The recipes I tried were phenomenal! I stayed on till the pandemic hit and I lost my job. By then I had list 30 pounds and was beginning to feel great! For the life of me I can’t understand why it’s so hard to get back to it.

Hi Brandi, not eating enough definitely won’t cause you to not lose. There are many complicated factors when it comes to weight loss and lifestyle factors. If you would like, we can work together? https://calendly.com/fatforweightloss/15-min-session

Hi – I’ve done keto before and lost weight effortlessly without exercise. I still have weight to lose and am now adding in exercise – body weight, free weights and cardio, but don’t seem to be losing the same as before. I understand that muscle weighs more than fat. My app tracks my exercise against my calories/macros, so my question is…when I am exercising, do I need to “eat” a portion of the calories/macros that I have burned? My fear is that I’m not eating enough and that may be why I’m not losing, but at the same time, I don’t know how much I would need to eat to make up for what I’ve burned exercising and still be successful.
