What Does 2000 Calories Look Like?
So supposedly the Recommended Daily Allowance should be 2000 calories a day; Actually now it is termed "Recommended Daily Intake."
Sure, you can calculate how much you should be consuming on a daily basis by clicking here, but I don't necessarily agree with it. I mean, c'mon, I'm supposed to be eating 2800 calories/day? That's not gonna happen. I've lost 62 pounds for a reason, and it wasn't by eating 2000 calories/day, much less 2800.
On a side note, this is what 2000 calories looks like...
I have organized my blogs with 3 days worth of postings, so if you wish to continue reading the days before that, and so forth and so forth, you can click the "Older Posts" button /\ /\ /\ right /\ up there.
There are 3 other ways you can find interesting topics to read as well.
*Clicking on any of the links under my "Favorite Categories" section on the left hand side of your screen
*Using the Google Search bar under the scrolling text.
*By choosing a date from the drop down list on the right hand side of your screen.
Hope you enjoy my daily posts, and hope to hear from you soon.

Fitness Pal only allows me 1200 Peteroo and im lucky if I lose 1 lb a week. LoL. 2000??? That must be for like a professional athlete or something.
You probably have your settings set wrong sissy. I purposely set mine for 1450.
Are you saying im eating too many or not enough? LoL. I wouldn't mind adding more but since im working im not able to workout like I want to. I walk every morning from the parking lot to the office which is quite a ways but without my padometer I don't know how far it is. Im guessing about 1/2 mile if im lucky. And I walk every evening too. I sit on my but all day. I need to do something. I might bring my arm weights to work. LoL.
Well you really should eat more, I end up eating more calories anyway, but that's because I know I worked out and exercised. At least make sure to take your vitamins. Also, since you're not exercising as much, you can never go wrong whole grains and fiber. You're doing really well, but 1200 calories, wow, I would starve. Lol.
Well that's what it tells me when I put my weight in. 1200. I guess im still too fat. LOL! !! I don't starve. Im doing pretty good at finding stuff that fills me up that's lower in calorie. I just wish I could work out. I miss my elliptical, etc. Oh yeah. Thanks for reminding me. Gotta take my vitamin.
I definitely gives you a perspective on what you're eating. Of course, you can have healthy calories and lots of them or smaller amounts of bad calories. Like the peeps desert. Probably not that many calories but lord almighty was it not in any way healthy.
