The reason I am telling you this is because a leading Dr said we should follow a mediteranean diet of fish, lean meat LEGUMES, vegies and olive oil. After seeing your little snippet it certainly makes sense...oh and I love them.<br /><br />Thanks for the infoGirl Bandithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10334455002394539268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204035715432636345.post-32288744217810024232010-02-14T17:59:39.524-05:002010-02-14T17:59:39.524-05:00At one time I was told to keep my carbs under 100....At one time I was told to keep my carbs under 100. But there was no way I could do it without either doubling the protein they told me to get or upping my fat past the 30% mark. <br /><br />One thing you might want to consider is to up your fat. I know that sounds strange, but right now you are at 16% and most research recommends to stay under 25-35% for a healthy diet (1 gram of fat = 9 calories). I was orginally trying to stay as low as you, but it made it really hard to get my calories in. Plus I was told that too little fat is just as bad as too much fat. Of course the type of fat is just as important as the type of carbs. <br /><br />For myself, I also try to hit 1200 calories since any lower seems to affect my energy levels. For me this means 30% fat (40g), 30% protein (90g), and 40% carbs (120g). 40 grams of fat seems so high to me so typically get closer to 25% or 34 grams and increase my protein and carbs a little.TJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18274989438466842161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204035715432636345.post-36172579709566421692010-02-14T17:52:42.597-05:002010-02-14T17:52:42.597-05:00my bariatric team is drilling into our heads that ...my bariatric team is drilling into our heads that our total carb count for the day should be 40g! they are especially pushing this for maintenance.Shrinking Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11630320337079423759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204035715432636345.post-50146100159957387712010-02-14T17:14:41.983-05:002010-02-14T17:14:41.983-05:00Great post title, Barbara!!
