Here is are photos of the meal plan in the app called "Lost it"
As you can see on the top right picture it give the breakdown of all the fat, carbs, and protein you have consumed for the day. It also gives you the percentage of each. The app allows you to enter your height, weight, and activity level. It determines your calorie needs to a day based on that information.
I am trying out different levels of protein, carbs, and fats to see how my body responds. Last week's and this week's meal plan incorporated a lot of protein which helps keep me full longer, but I also have been craving sweets.This week I have incorporated more fruits (carbs) to ease my sweet tooth.
I wanted to refresh my memory on my iifym calculator from a pervious post. Here is the link again: IIFYM calculator
These are my results:
Based on these results I could adjust my meal plan to meet these needs. I could add another protein shake to meet my 21g more of protein need. I could add 12 more almonds to meet my fat need. I could add a banana to meet my carb needs.
My goal for this post was to help you understand how I plan my meals according to my needs. Comment below if you guys have any questions for me. I would be happy to answer any!
Time to go take another final!
Later taters! <3
